4-Hydroxy-3-methoxyamphetamine
MDMA metabolite From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
4-Hydroxy-3-methoxyamphetamine (HMA), also known as 3-O-methyl-α-methyldopamine, is an active metabolite of 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA).[1][2][3] It is substantially less potent than MDMA or 3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine (MDA) as a monoamine releasing agent in vitro.[4][5] Nonetheless, HMA has been found to induce the release of serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine with EC50 values of 897 nM, 694 nM, and 1450–3423 nM, respectively, and hence acts as a lower-potency serotonin–norepinephrine–dopamine releasing agent (SNDRA).[4][5] The predicted log P of HMA is 0.6.[6]
