Chemical Name & Structure

• Chemical Name: 2-(ethylamino)-1-phenylpentan-1-one

• Molecular Formula: C13H19NO

• Molecular Weight: 205.30 g/mol

Structure:

NEP (N-Ethylpentedrone) is a synthetic cathinone belonging to the substituted phenethylamine class. It features a β-keto group on the amphetamine backbone with an ethyl substitution on the amine, contributing to its structural classification.

Description (Research Context Only)

NEP is commonly studied in analytical and neurochemical research, particularly within the class of synthetic cathinones. It is relevant in:

• Structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies

• Monoamine transporter interaction research

• Forensic toxicology and compound identification

• Analytical reference standard development

As a substituted cathinone, NEP is often examined in comparative studies involving stimulant-type compounds and their effects on dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin systems.

This compound is supplied strictly for laboratory research and analytical purposes only and is not intended for human or veterinary use.
