2 FPM (2-Fluorophenmetrazine)

2-FPM , or 2-Fluorophenmetrazine , is a synthetic stimulant of the morpholine class , structurally related to phenmetrazine .
It is studied in forensic and pharmacological laboratories as part of the study of new psychoactive substances (NPS) . 2 fpm

Although structurally related to earlier drugs, 2-FPM has no medical use and is being investigated solely for scientific purposes .

Chemical and Pharmacological Background

Important information:

• IUPAC name: 3-methyl-2-(2-fluorophenyl)morpholine

• Molecular formula: C11H14FNO

• Molecular mass: ±195.23 g/mol

• Chemical class: Morpholine derivatives / phenmetrazine analogues

• Receptor action: Indirect sympathomimetic — affects dopamine and noradrenaline reuptake.

The fluorine substitution at the 2-position alters the binding affinity and metabolic properties, making 2-FPM interesting for structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies .

Research purposes

2-FPM is being investigated for:

• Analytical chemistry: validation of detection methods via GC-MS, LC-MS and FTIR.

• Forensic toxicology: detection in biological or seized samples.

• Pharmacological research: Study of monoamine release and receptor interaction. 2 fpm

• Public Health: Inclusion in early warning systems for new stimulants.

Safety and Legal Considerations

Safety:

• To be handled only by qualified researchers in licensed laboratories .

• Wear gloves, goggles and lab coat .

• Work under ventilation or an extractor hood.

Legal status: 2-FPM is regulated or prohibited
in many countries under psychoactive substances or analogues legislation . Use outside of research conditions is punishable .
