Methylone is a β-ketone analog of 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (3,4-MDMA; ） that has been detected in products marketed as bath salts, plant food, and tablets.1,2 Similar to 3,4-MDMA, it acts on components of the monoaminergic systems.3,4,5 5-methoxy Methylone is a cathinone derivative that bears a methoxy group similar to various tryptamine analogs including 5-methoxy MiPT , which are known to potently inhibit monoamine transport function.5 The pharmacological and toxicological properties of this compound are not known. This product is intended for forensic and research purposes. | [References]
