Metabolite Identification
Common NameN-Methylphenylethanolamine
DescriptionN-Methylphenylethanolamine, also known as (+-)-halostachine or MPEOA, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as aralkylamines. These are alkylamines in which the alkyl group is substituted at one carbon atom by an aromatic hydrocarbyl group. N-Methylphenylethanolamine exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. Based on a literature review a small amount of articles have been published on N-Methylphenylethanolamine.
