'Research chemical'

'Research chemical' (RC) is a term applied to a broad variety of psychoactive drugs that are implicitly sold for use in scientific and medical research.Many research chemicals are structurally similar to scheduled chemicals,and could be considered to be analogues.Despite the evident analogy with scheduled compounds,research chemicals fall into a legal grey area under U.S. law. Since the chemicals are marketed for legitimate purposes (i.e. not for human consumption),their possession and distribution does not necessarily contravene the Analog Act.
