3,4-MDEA-d5 (hydrochloride)

3,4-MDEA-d5 (hydrochloride) by GC- or LC-mass spectrometry. 3,4-MDEA is an analytical reference standard that is structurally categorized as an amphetamine. It has similar psychotropic action to methylenedioxyamphetamine (MDMA) and shares the common name of ‘ecstasy’. Both MDMAs are regulated as Schedule I drugs in the United States. In rats, 3,4-MDEA produces significant retention deficits in learning tasks and is similar to 3,4-MDMA in inducing serotonin release from frontal cortex/hippocampal synaptosomes. Postmortem findings in human deaths associated with 3,4-MDEA as well as 3,4-MDMA indicate striking brain and myocardial damage as well as liver necrosis. This product is intended for forensic and research applications.
