α-Pyrrolidinohexiophenone (α-PHP, A-PHP, Aphp, alpha-PHP, α-Pyrrolidinohexanophenone, PV-7) is a synthetic stimulant drug of the cathinone class developed in the 1960s[1] which has been reported as a novel designer drug.[2][3][4][5][6][7]

Similar chemical compounds

α-Pyrrolidinohexiophenone is a longer chain homologue of α-PVP, having an extra carbon on the alkyl side chain. Regarding the potency of alpha-PHP in the brain, chemist Michael H. Baumann of the Designer Drug Research Unit (established by Baumann[8]) of the National Institute on Drug Abuse stated: "alpha-PHP might be even more potent than alpha-PVP"; this statement is based on laboratory tests of chemical reactivity.[9]

Pyrovalerone is a structural isomer of alpha-PHP.[10]

Legality

In the United States, α-PHP in the past has been assigned to Schedule I on a Temporary Placement basis, although the order has expired without renewal or permanent placement and is no longer Scheduled at the Federal level as of July 2021.[11] Despite this however, α-PHP may be considered an analogue of α-PVP, a Schedule I drug under the Controlled Substances Act. As such, possession or the sale for human consumption or the use for illicit non-medical or industrial intents and purposes could be prosecuted as crimes under the Federal Analogue Act.[12]

The President of the Republic of Italy classified cathinone and all structurally derived analogues (including pyrovalerone analogues) as narcotics in January 2012.[13][14]

Sweden's public health agency suggested to classify α-PHP as narcotic on June 1, 2015.[15]

As of October 2015, α-PHP is a controlled substance in China.[16]

In December 2019, the UNODC announced scheduling recommendations placing Alpha-PHP into Schedule II.[17]

As of October 29, 2021, α-PHP has been banned in the Netherlands under the 1971 Vienna Convention on Psychotropic Substances.[18]
