🧪 Chemical Properties
IC-26 HCL (Methiodone Hydrochloride) is a synthetic opioid and a structural analogue of methadone. The substance primarily binds to mu-opioid receptors and is used in chemical and pharmacological research to study analgesic mechanisms and receptor binding characteristics. Its chemical formula is C20H27NO2S, and its CAS number is 60662-79-5. The molar mass is 345.50 g/mol (free base) or approx. 381.99 g/mol (hydrochloride form).
IC-26 HCL is offered as the hydrochloride salt, which provides enhanced water solubility compared to the free base. A key structural feature is the substitution of the carbonyl group with a sulfonyl group, distinguishing it from methadone. Our variant is highly pure, free from added impurities or cutting agents, and produced exclusively via our partner laboratory. This tested quality is available only from us.
🏭 Production and Quality Control
IC-26 HCL is produced exclusively through a partner laboratory specialized in the synthesis of complex research chemicals. Each batch undergoes comprehensive testing in our internal laboratory, including HPLC, GC, and mass spectrometry analyses to verify chemical identity, purity, and batch conformity. Our customers thus receive a tested, pure, and reliable product that is only available from us in this form.
🔬 Use in Research
IC-26 HCL is a completely legal research chemical and intended exclusively for scientific use. Typical applications include:
- Structural chemical analyses (e.g., NMR, HPLC, GC, mass spectrometry)
- Receptor binding studies at mu-opioid receptors
- Pharmacological profiling in preclinical models
- Comparative studies with methadone and related opioids
- Method development for quantitative analysis in chemical and biological matrices
The product is supplied only to qualified professionals with proven legitimate research purposes. Any other use is strictly prohibited.
⚖️ Legal Status
IC-26 HCL is currently not listed under the German Narcotics Act (BtMG), Medicines Act (AMG), or New Psychoactive Substances Act (NpSG). It is therefore considered a completely legal research chemical in Germany. Acquisition and possession are permitted under current legal conditions. Customers are required to ensure compliance with applicable laws in their country or region.
