    Product Description

    2-Amino-1-phenylbutane is an amphetamine characterized by having an ethyl group in the alpha position. It has emerged as a potential recreational drug.1,2 This product is a mixture of the D and L isomers. The D isomer of this compound partially substitutes for D-amphetamine in an animal discrimination analysis, suggesting that it weakly mimicks the signaling and stimulant properties of D-amphetamine.3 This product is intended for forensic and research applications.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
