From WikiMD's Food, Medicine & Wellness Encyclopedia

4'-Methoxy-α-pyrrolidinopropiophenone (also known as MOPPP) is a psychoactive drug and research chemical of the pyrrolidinophenone class. It is structurally related to α-PPP, with the addition of a methoxy group at the 4' position of the phenyl ring.

Chemistry[edit | edit source]

4'-Methoxy-α-pyrrolidinopropiophenone is a synthetic compound of the cathinone and pyrrolidinophenone classes. It is a derivative of propiophenone, with a pyrrolidine ring attached to the alpha carbon. The methoxy group at the 4' position of the phenyl ring differentiates it from its analog, α-PPP.

Pharmacology[edit | edit source]

The pharmacological properties of 4'-Methoxy-α-pyrrolidinopropiophenone are not well-studied. However, it is believed to act as a norepinephrine-dopamine reuptake inhibitor (NDRI), similar to other compounds in the pyrrolidinophenone class. This means it could potentially increase levels of these neurotransmitters in the brain by blocking their reuptake into neurons.
