3',4'-Methylenedioxy-α-pyrrolidinopropiophenone

3',4'-Methylenedioxy-α-pyrrolidinopropiophenone (MDPPP) is a stimulant designer drug. It was sold in Germany in the late 1990s and early 2000s as an ingredient in imitation ecstasy (MDMA) pills.[3] It shares a similar chemical structure with α-PPP and MDPV,[4][1][2] and has been shown to have reinforcing effects in rats.[5]

Metabolism

edit

MDPPP appears to have a similar metabolic fate as MDPV.[2]

edit

As of October 2015 MDPPP is a controlled substance in China.[6]
