5-MAPB

5-MAPB (5-(2-methylaminopropyl)benzofuran) is a synthetic entactogen of the benzofuran class of chemicals, a series of compounds known for their psychoactive effects. The first time it was identified was in Japan in 2011. The CAS number of this substance is 135463179-0.

Chemical Information

The molecular formula for 5-MAPB (C12H15NO) is C12H15NO. It is a member of the benzofuran chemical class, which has a fused structure of benzene-furan rings. The structure of 5-MAPB is similar to MDMA’s, but with a furan-ring in place of the methylenedioxyphenyl.

5-MAPB is typically a white powder or off-white, but the color can vary depending on the purity and the synthesis method.

Uses and effects

5-MAPB is used primarily for research in areas such as neuroscience and toxicology. It is known to produce psychoactive effects, including euphoria and increased empathy. The effects of marijuana can be very different depending on the individual, their body chemistry and dosage.

The mechanism is similar to MDMA, where it increases the release of serotonin and dopamine and inhibits the reuptake.

Dosage

Due to the fact that there is no formal research done on 5-MAPB and because everyone’s response can vary, it is difficult to determine the correct dosage. Researchers recommend that you start with a low dose, and then increase it as necessary. However, extreme caution is advised due to the possibility of severe side effects.

Legality of 5-MAPB can vary depending on jurisdiction. Check the legal status of 5-MAPB in your jurisdiction before buying.
