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]

Legal Status[edit]

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

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
