3-Chloro-N-cyclopropylcathinone (3Cl-CpC; code names PAL-433, RTI-6037-39) is a stimulant and hybrid monoamine releasing agent and monoamine reuptake inhibitor of the cathinone family related to bupropion (3-chloro-N-tert-butylcathinone). [1] [2] [3]
It acts specifically as a dual serotonin releasing agent (SRA) and serotonin–norepinephrine–dopamine reuptake inhibitor (SNDRI). [1] [2] [3] Its EC50 Tooltip half-maximal effective concentration for induction of serotonin release is 1,328 nM, whereas its IC50 Tooltip half-maximal inhibitory concentration values for monoamine reuptake inhibition are 265 to 533 nM for dopamine, 2,150 nM for norepinephrine, and 3,180 nM for serotonin. [1] [2] [3] The drug produces psychostimulant-like effects in animals, with a slow onset of action and a long duration of action. [1] [3] The activities of the individual enantiomers of 3Cl-CpC, (−)-3Cl-CpC (PAL-1122) and (+)-3Cl-CpC (PAL-1123), have also been reported. [2]
3Cl-CpC was first described in the scientific literature by 2009. [1] [2] [3] It was being investigated by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) as a potential treatment of stimulant dependence, including cocaine dependence specifically. [1] [2] [3]
