Phthalimidopropiophenone

Phthalimidopropiophenone is a stimulant drug related to methcathinone.

It has been reported to be sold on the illicit market as a controlled substance analogue, but little is known about its pharmacology or toxicology as yet.

Phthalimidopropiophenone is probably not an active stimulant in its own right, but instead is a prodrug, being metabolised once inside the body to form cathinone and phthalic acid.
