Description

n-Ethyl-n-Methylcathinone Hydrochloride is a synthetic cathinone derivative supplied as a high-purity hydrochloride salt. This compound is of significant interest in pharmaceutical research and development, particularly for its potential as a reference standard or a key intermediate in medicinal chemistry. It is primarily utilized by research institutions, analytical laboratories, and pharmaceutical companies engaged in neuropharmacology, forensic analysis, and novel therapeutic agent synthesis.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Research: Acts as a critical reference standard or intermediate in the development and study of central nervous system (CNS) active agents.
• Forensic Analysis: Used as an analytical standard for the identification and quantification of novel psychoactive substances (NPS) in forensic toxicology.
• Medicinal Chemistry: Serves as a building block or precursor in the synthesis of novel chemical entities for pharmacological screening.
• Academic Studies: Employed in university and institutional research to investigate structure-activity relationships (SAR) within the cathinone class.
• Quality Control: Functions as a certified reference material (CRM) to validate analytical methods in regulatory and compliance testing.

Quality Control

Our n-Ethyl-n-Methylcathinone Hydrochloride is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, IR and NMR for structural confirmation, and residual solvent analysis, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research applications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurities is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept sealed under anhydrous conditions to prevent degradation.
