4'-Methoxy-α-pyrrolidinopropiophenone

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

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

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.

Legality

The legal status of 4'-Methoxy-α-pyrrolidinopropiophenone varies by country. In some jurisdictions, it is classified as a controlled substance, while in others it may be legal to possess for personal use. It is always recommended to check local laws before purchasing or possessing this substance.
