'''Ethylcathinone''', '''ethylpropion''' or '''ETH-CAT''', is a [[psychoactive class::stimulant]] drug of the phenethylamine, [[chemical class::amphetamine]], and cathinone chemical classes. It is an active metabolite of the prodrug diethylcathinone and is responsible for its effects. Ethcathinone has been identified as an ingredient in both quasi-legal "party pills", and, along with mephedrone, has also been reported as having been sold as "ecstasy"<ref>Police warn of potentially fatal 'fake ecstasy' | http://www.abc.net.au/news/2008-06-17/police-warn-of-potentially-fatal-fake-ecstasy/2475270</ref> | '''Ethylcathinone''', '''ethcathinone''', '''ethylpropion''' or '''ETH-CAT''', is a [[psychoactive class::stimulant]] drug of the phenethylamine, [[chemical class::amphetamine]], and cathinone chemical classes.
