If many of the mood alterations induced by khat resemble those produced by amphetamine, it is not by chance. The active ingredient, cathinone, has the same basic configuration as amphetamine ... A second active component, cathine, is much less active because its lipid solubility is much lower than that of cathinone. During storage and transport, cathinone is rapidly converted to cathine, and the result is a considerable loss of potency. 2, record 1, English, - cathine
