    Product Description

    4-Chloromethcathinone is an analog of methcathinone that has a chlorine atom inserted at the 4 position of the phenyl ring. While the physiological and toxicological properties of this compound are not known, a similar compound, 4-bromomethcathinone (Item No. 12089) inhibits norepinephrine reuptake, like methcathinone, but fails to stimulate spontaneous locomotor activity in rats.1,2 This product is intended for forensic and research applications.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
