Spectroscopic characterization and crystal structures of four hydrochloride cathinones: N -ethyl-2-amino-1-phenylhexan-1-one ( hexen, NEH ), N -methyl-2-amino-1-(4-methylphenyl)-3-methoxypropan-1-one ( mexedrone ), N -ethyl-2-amino-1-(3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl)pentan-1-one ( ephylone ) and N -butyl-2-amino-1-(4-chlorophenyl)propan-1-one ( 4 - chlorobutylcathinone )

ConclusionsX-ray crystallography is especially useful for identifying the new and unknown designer drugs and their enantiomeric forms.
