Rhynchophylline, Mitraphylline & Corynoxine B
Every brand in the new cat's-claw wave says “an indole alkaloid from the Cat's Claw plant.” None of them say which one. Here's the chemistry that makes that omission the whole story — published data only, no health claims.

| Alkaloid | What it is | Published receptor data |
|---|---|---|
| Rhynchophylline | An oxindole alkaloid found in Uncaria species (cat’s claw and relatives) | No measurable opioid-receptor binding in published data |
| Mitraphylline | The oxindole alkaloid cat’s-claw supplements have cited for decades | No measurable opioid-receptor binding in published data |
| Corynoxine B | A related oxindole reported by industry sources as the compound new “cat’s claw” tablet products are built around | Reported as an opioid-active mu partial agonist — with no published human safety or dosing data as an isolated compound |
Chemistry and published findings only — no health claims, no dosing guidance, ever.
Why every label says “an indole alkaloid” and stops there
If a tablet contained mitraphylline or rhynchophylline — the alkaloids cat’s claw is actually known for — naming them would cost nothing. They’re legal, decades-familiar, and inert at opioid receptors in published data. The brands don’t name them. They market a kratom-like experience from an unnamed “indole alkaloid,” which industry reporting identifies as corynoxine B in at least part of the category — an opioid-active compound with no published human safety record as an isolate.
Add the public record — Utah Poison Control’s July 2026 alert on adulterated products in this category, the Missouri Attorney General’s investigation into manufacturers — and the picture is the 7-OH cycle replaying one compound over. When enforcement arrives, the what-changed page for this wave is already written; you’re reading its chemistry section.
