Description

R(+)-Cathinone Hydrochloride CAS NO 76333-53-4 is the hydrochloride salt of the dextrorotatory enantiomer of cathinone, a key phenylalkylamine alkaloid. This high-purity chiral building block is essential for advanced pharmaceutical research and development, particularly in neuroscience. It is primarily utilized by research institutions and pharmaceutical companies engaged in the synthesis of novel compounds and pharmacological studies.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Reference Standard: Serves as a certified standard for analytical method development, validation, and quality control in drug testing and forensic analysis.
• Neuroscience Research: Used as a precise chemical tool to study neurotransmitter systems, receptor binding affinities, and the pharmacological effects of stimulant compounds.
• Organic Synthesis Intermediate: Acts as a critical chiral precursor in the synthesis of more complex molecules for medicinal chemistry programs.
• Metabolite Studies: Employed in the research of drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics (DMPK) to identify and quantify metabolic pathways.
