Dimethylcathinone (Metamfepramone, Dimethylpropion) is a stimulant drug related to cathinone and methcathinone.
It is a dialkylaminopropiophenone that can be synthesized from α-bromopropiophenone and dimethylamine.
Dimethylcathinone was evaluated as an appetite suppressant and for the treatment of hypotension (low blood pressure) but was never widely marketed.[1]
