    Product Description

    4-Fluoromethcathinone (4-FMC) (Item No. 10859) is a fluorinated cathinone derivative identified in several designer drugs that are marketed as plant feeders.1,2 This metabolite of 4-FMC features conversion of the β-keto group to β-hydroxy and is an enantiomeric mixture of the R,S and S,R orientations at carbons one and two, as in ephedrine. The physiological and toxicological properties of this compound have not been evaluated. This product is intended for forensic and research purposes.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
