Chemical analysis of two new designer drugs: buphedrone and pentedrone

摘要

The hydrochloride salts of buphedrone and pentedrone, two new designer drugs, have recently been identified in shipments destined for Canada. To confirm their identities, we have synthesized reference materials for these methcathinone analogues and herein provide complete characterization by FTIR, FT-Raman, 1H NMR, 13?C NMR, GC/MS and ESI-HRMS.
