2-CMC

2-CMC (1-(2-chlorophenyl)-2-(methylamino)propan-1-one) is a reference compound belonging to the Cathinone derivatives class, characterized by the molecular formula C10H12ClNO and a molar mass of 197.66 g/mol. The parent molecule is indexed under CAS registry number 1246911-70-5 and in the NCBI PubChem database as CID 112693018 (Standard InChIKey: UHVGPEBZWPKWNT-UHFFFAOYSA-N). This molecule shares its empirical formula (C10H12ClNO) with positional or structural isomers; unambiguous analytical identification requires matching the full IUPAC structure, CAS number (1246911-70-5), and spectroscopic profile.

In documented chemical and harm-reduction literature (PubChem / PsychonautWiki, CC BY 4.0), 2-CMC is indexed within the Cathinone derivatives structural group. As a substituted beta-ketone (cathinone derivative), this compound requires strict analytical verification and has documented contraindications with MAOIs, serotonergic agents, and other stimulants. Standard laboratory handling precautions—including nitrile gloves, eye protection, and local exhaust ventilation—apply whenever handling the reference material.
