'''Hexedrone''' is a [[research chemical]] [[Stimulant|stimulant]] that falls within the [[Cathinone|cathinone]] category. Considering its effects and its structure being closely related to [[Pentedrone]], this too is likely to be a Norepinephrine-Dopamine-reuptake-inhibitor (NDRI). However, these assumptions have not yet been confirmed, due to insufficient research.

Due to the lack of research along with only little experience-based information, the presented data might turn out to have some inaccuracies. This should especially be taken into consideration when interpreting the dosage information.

Hexedrone is a [[Cathinone|substituted cathinone]], which are closely related to [[Amphetamines|amphetamines]], but have a ß-substituted ketone group as well. Relative to regular cathinone, which can be found in the Khat plant, hexedrone consists of two added substitutions. At the R<sub>2</sub> position, an n-Butyl substitution forms a hexan chain. The second substitution is a Methyl group, that's connected to the amine (R<sub>4</sub>), thus forming N-Methyl.

Due to the lack of research regarding the substance, all discussion regarding the pharmacology of it is purely based upon its structure and subjective effect similarities to other [[cathinone]]s such as [[Pentedrone|pentedrone]] and others. Hexedrone most likely acts as both a [[dopamine]] and [[norepinephrine]] [[reuptake inhibitor]]. This allows dopamine and norepinephrine to accumulate within the brain, resulting in [[stimulation|stimulating]] and [[physical euphoria|euphoric]] effects. The decreased potency, compared to both pentedrone as well as [[Ethyl-Hexedrone|ethyl-hexedrone]] can be easily explained. Compared to pentedrone, there's a larger non-polar side chain. Ethyl-hexedrone has an ethyl group, instead of a methyl, which results in a significantly shifted electronegativity.
