3-Me-PCPy HCl

Description

Advanced Research with 3-Me-PCPy (3-Methyl-PCPy)

3-Me-PCPy, or 3-Methyl-PCPy, is a novel research chemical that represents a structural evolution within the arylcyclohexylamine family. It is chemically defined as a derivative of PCPy (1-(1-phenylcyclohexyl)pyrrolidine), featuring a methyl group at the meta (3-position) of the phenyl ring. In specialized research settings, 3-Me-PCPy serves as a critical molecular probe for studying how the integration of a pyrrolidine ring—as opposed to open-chain amines—influences binding affinity and selectivity at the NMDA receptor and monoamine transporters.

As a non-ketone arylcyclohexylamine (lacking the 2-oxo group), 3-Me-PCPy provides essential data for researchers mapping the electronic requirements of ligand-binding sites in more lipophilic structural scaffolds. When you buy 3-Me-PCPy in the USA through USA Professor, you are securing a professional-grade reagent refined for high-fidelity structural profiling, ligand-binding assays, and repeatable experimental data.

Technical Integrity & Laboratory Storage

• Pyrrolidine Structural Platform: The pyrrolidine ring substitution offers a specialized platform for investigating the steric fit and metabolic stability of cyclic-amine arylcyclohexylamines compared to $N$-ethyl or $N$-methyl analogues.

• Verified Analytical Purity: Our 3-Me-PCPy is rigorously batch-tested to meet a purity standard of >97%, ensuring a clean profile for HPLC, GC-MS, and NMR spectroscopy.

• HCl Salt Stability: This reagent is provided as a hydrochloride salt, ensuring superior crystalline stability and resistance to atmospheric degradation.

• Optimal Stability: 3-Me-PCPy powder remains chemically stable for up to 2 years when stored in the correct environment. Like all arylcyclohexylamines, it is sensitive to heat and moisture. Store in a cool, dry, and dark location in an airtight container to maintain chemical integrity.

• Rapid USA Fulfillment: Avoid the logistical complexities and risks associated with international chemical shipping. All orders are processed and dispatched from our domestic USA facility, ensuring a secure and efficient supply chain for your research laboratory.
