    • Description

    (−)-(S)-Cathinone (hydrochloride)

    Cathinone, the main psychoactive alkaloid from the khat plant (C. edulis), is a potent central stimulant and a naturally occurring analog of amphetamine. (−)-(S)-Cathinone is several times more potent than its (+)-isomer, and its absolute stereochemistry is identical to that of (+)-(S)-amphetamine.1 Like amphetamine, (−)-(S)-cathinone is a potent releaser of norepinephrine and dopamine from their intracellular stores.2,3 With an ED50 value of 0.42 μmol/kg, (−)-(S)-cathinone produces amphetamine-like stimulus effects in rats trained to discriminate 1 mg/kg of (+)-(S)-amphetamine from vehicle.1 This product is intended for research and forensic applications.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
