3-FA is also called 3-fluoroamphetamine. It belongs to the amphetamine class. It belongs to the fluoroamphetamine family and has a similar structure to amphetamine, as well as other fluorinated amphetamines such 2-FA and 4FA. 3-FA is intended as a research chemical, and not for human consumption.
3-Fluoroamphetamine (also known as 3-FA or 3-FMA) is a synthetic, ring-substituted amphetamine with powerful stimulant properties. It has been claimed that it is “almost equal” to methamphetamine[1]. 3-FA belongs to a group of designer amphetamine analogues, such as 2-FA and 2-FMA. They are known for their stimulating and euphoric effects[1].
Development and CAS Number
It is not known when 3-FA was first synthesized, but it is thought to have occurred in the 1970s. It is not as popular as its cousins such as 4-FA or 2-FA. 3-FA has a chemical formula C9H12FNO and a CAS number of 1364933-55-0.
Shape and Color
The 3-FA powder is white and crystalline. It can be distinguished from other amphétamines by its distinctive shape and color. Compounds are usually seen as small crystals of off-white to yellowish color. These crystals have a distinctive odor and are highly soluble.
Uses:
3-FA, as a research chemical is used primarily for scientific and experimentation purposes. It is not approved by the FDA for medical or therapeutic purposes and is not meant for human consumption. Researchers use 3-FA to study stimulant effects on the central nervous systems. Although its properties are similar to those of other amphetamines but it has a unique chemical structure that makes it useful for specific research applications.
It is believed that 3-FA acts as a powerful central nervous system stimulater, increasing the release neurotransmitters like dopamine and norepinephrine. It can increase heart rate, blood-pressure, and body temperature. The exact effects of 3-FA are still not fully understood due to a lack of research.
Conclusion: 3-FA belongs to the fluoroamphetamine family. It is not for human consumption, but is used primarily for scientific and experimentation purposes. It has a distinctive white or off-white crystallized appearance, and is highly water soluble. The effects of this compound on the central nervous systems are similar to those of other amphetamines. However, its unique chemical composition makes it useful for specific research applications.
