O-PCE

Description

Advanced Research with O-PCE (2′-Oxo-PCE)

O-PCE, also known as 2′-Oxo-PCE or Eticyclidone, is a specialized research chemical belonging to the arylcyclohexylamine family. As the $N$-ethyl analogue of deschloroketamine (DCK), O-PCE serves as a vital structural probe in neurochemical and forensic laboratories. It is primarily utilized to study the influence of $N$-alkyl and 2-oxo substitutions on the binding affinity and selectivity at the NMDA receptor and monoamine reuptake transporters.

The presence of the 2-oxo (ketone) group on the cyclohexyl ring significantly differentiates O-PCE from other members of the eticyclidine family, providing unique data points for researchers mapping structural-activity relationships (SAR). When you buy O-PCE in the USA through USA Professor, you are sourcing a professional-grade reagent refined for high-fidelity structural profiling, ligand-binding assays, and repeatable quantitative data.

Technical Integrity & Laboratory Storage

• Structural Optimization: O-PCE features an $N$-ethyl chain and a ketone group at the 2-position, offering a specialized platform for investigating the chemical properties of oxo-substituted dissociated reagents.

• Verified Analytical Purity: Our O-PCE 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 in the hydrochloride salt form, ensuring superior crystalline stability and resistance to atmospheric degradation.

• Optimal Stability: O-PCE remains chemically stable for up to 2 years when stored in the correct environment. For maximum longevity, store in a cool, dry, and dark location, ensuring the container is airtight to prevent moisture absorption.

• 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.
