ortho-Methylphenylpiperazine (also known as oMPP, oMePP, 1-(2-methylphenyl)piperazine, 2-MPP, and 2-MePP) is a

release of 175 nM for serotonin, 39.1 nM for norepinephrine, and 296–542 nM for dopamine.[3][4] As such, it has about 4.5-fold preference for induction of norepinephrine release over serotonin, and about 7.6- to 13.9-fold preference for induction of norepinephrine release over dopamine.[3][4]

The

analogues show diminished activity as dopamine releasing agents with respective EC50 values of 1,207 nM and 9,523 nM.[3][4] However, at the same time, induction of serotonin and norepinephrine release is retained and more balanced in the 2,3-methyl analogue, with respective EC50 values of 26 nM and 56 nM.[4]
