Yeah I guess the prosecution could say that possession of a prodrug of a controlled drug in a form intended for consumption (i.e. pressed pills) amounts to conspiracy to manufacture that controlled drug, using your own liver enzymes as the manufacturing equipment.
No, a-PPP seems to be the preferred 'chemical term'
Why use hydrazine? Base hydrolysis (NaOH would suffice.
Then of course there's α-phthalimido-glutarimide (thalidomide)
I thought a-PPP was 1-phenyl-2-(1-pyrrolidyl)-1-propanone (alpha-pyrrolidylpropiophenone, hence a-PPP) - a different beast altogether?
Limpet_Chicken said:Thalidomide is only a bad thing if one is pregnant, no? is it mutagenic or teratogenic in adult humans?
nope, still used, actually
Hhhmmm I'd probably find that more insightful if I was smart and did chemistry at school instead of art and french
