Cannabis Compound Identification
Common Name4-Methylphenethylamine
Description4-Methylphenethylamine also known as para-methylphenethylamine, with the chemical formula of C9H13N, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as phenethylamines. Phenethylamines are compounds containing a phenethylamine moiety, which consists of a phenyl group substituted at the second position by an ethan-1-amine. 4-Methylphenethylamine is a very strong basic compound (based on its pKa). As its monomethylated isomers, α-methylphenethylamine, β-methylphenethylamine, and N-methylphenethylamine, 4-methylphenethylamine is an agonist of the trace amine associated receptor 1 (TAAR1) in humans (PMID: 17038507 ). Furthermore, there is also evidence showing that 4-methylphenethylamine might inhibit the cytochrome P450 CYP1A2 and CYP2A6 enzymes, in humans. 4-Methylphenetylamine has been detected as a volatile component in Marijuana samples obtained in police seizures (PMID:26657499 ).
