N-Ethylbuphedrone (also known as NEB) is a stimulant of the cathinone class that has been sold as a designer drug.[1][2][3][4] It is the β-ketone analogue of N,alpha-diethylphenylethylamine.

Legal status[edit]

As of October 2015 NEB is a controlled substance in China.[5]

In the United States NEB is considered a schedule 1 controlled substance as a positional isomer of 4-Methylethcathinone (4-MEC) [6]
