α'-Methyletonitazene is a benzimidazole derivative which is an opioid designer drug. It was the most potent compound identified in a series of etonitazene analogues tested for structure-activity relationship studies on this emerging class of designer drugs, though was still slightly less potent than etonitazene itself.[1][2][3]
