3-Fluoromethcathinone (also known as 3-FMC) is a stimulant of the phenethylamine, amphetamine and cathinone chemical classes that has been sold online as a designer drug.[1][2] It is an structural isomer of flephedrone (4-fluoromethcathinone).

3-Fluoroisomethcathinone is produced as a by-product when 3-FMC is synthesized, the activity of this compound is unknown.[3]

Effects

This chemical's psychoactive effects are yet to be studied scientifically; however, it is suspected to be much like mephedrone, though it is also suspected to lack entactogenic quality.[3]

In the United States, 3-FMC is Schedule I controlled substance.[4]

In the United Kingdom, 3-FMC is a controlled drug under the cathinone blanket ban.

3-FMC is a Anlage II controlled drug in Germany.
