Pendell's corner
The unstable alkaloid of khat — and the keystone of an entire chemical family. From cathinone to methcathinone to mephedrone to alpha-PVP, each step is a small chemistry-class variation on a molecule the East African farmer has been growing for centuries. The leaf knew what it was doing; the labs have not always.
— Dale Pendell, Pharmako/Dynamis
