3-Chlorophenmetrazine (3-CPM; code name PAL-594) is a recreational designer drug with stimulant effects.^[1]^[2] It is a substituted phenylmorpholine derivative, closely related to better known drugs such as phenmetrazine and 3-fluorophenmetrazine (3-FPM; PAL-593).^[1]^[2]

Quick Facts Clinical data, Other names ...

The drug has been shown to act as a norepinephrine–dopamine releasing agent (NDRA) with additional weak serotonin release.^[1]^[2] Its EC₅₀Tooltip half-maximal effective concentration values for induction of monoamine release are 27 nM for dopamine, 75 nM for norepinephrine, and 301 nM for serotonin in rat brain synaptosomes.^[1]^[2] Hence, it releases dopamine about 3-fold more potently than norepinephrine and about 11-fold more potently than serotonin.^[1]^[2]

Similarly to cis-4-methylaminorex, the drug is notable in being one of the most selective dopamine releasing agents (DRAs) known, although it still has substantial capacity to release norepinephrine.^[1]^[2]
