The Drug Enforcement Administration is accepting comments through Jan. 15 on a proposed rule that would permanently place the following substances (including their salts, isomers (including optical, positional, and geometric isomers), and salts of isomers) in schedule I of the Controlled Substances Act.
- methyl 2-[[1-(4-fluorobutyl)indole-3-carbonyl]amino]-3,3-dimethylbutanoate (other names: 4F–MDMB–BUTICA; 4F–MDMB–BICA)
- N-(1-amino-3,3-dimethyl-1-oxobutan-2-yl)-1-(pent-4-en-1-yl)-1H-indazole-3-carboxamide (other name: ADB–4en–PINACA)
- ethyl 2-[[1-(5-fluoropentyl)indole-3-carbonyl]amino]-3,3-dimethyl-butanoate (other names: 5F–EDMB–PICA; 5F–EDMB–2201)
- methyl 2-(1-(4-fluorobenzyl)-1H-indole-3-carboxamido)-3-methyl butanoate (other name: MMB–FUBICA)
This rule would permanently impose the regulatory controls and administrative, civil, and criminal sanctions applicable to schedule I substances on the importation, exportation, manufacture, distribution, possession, research, conduct of instructional activities, and chemical analysis of these substances.
