3-FA | Analytical Grade Fluorinated Amphetamine for Research
Product Overview
3-FA research amphetamine (3-Fluoroamphetamine) is a synthetic ring-substituted fluorinated analog of amphetamine and a prominent member of the phenethylamine class. According to the 3-FA Wiki, it features a fluorine atom substituted at the meta– ($3$-) position of the phenyl ring. This specific halogenated modification makes 3-FA a primary subject of interest for investigators examining monoamine transporter kinetics, metabolic pathways, and the biophysical effects of fluorine substitution on phenethylamine core structures. It serves as a vital comparative reference standard alongside other fluorinated isomers like 2-FA and 4-FA.

Primary Research Applications
3-FA research amphetamine is supplied exclusively for established scientific frameworks, including:
-
Monoamine Transporter Kinetics: In-vitro mapping of the compound’s inhibition and release profiles at the dopamine ($DAT$), norepinephrine ($NET$), and serotonin ($SERT$) transporters, specifically evaluating how meta-substitution alters monoaminergic selectivity compared to 2-FA and 4-FA.
-
Halogenation Structural Studies: Assessing how shifting a fluorine atom to the meta– position alters the steric and electronic properties of the phenethylamine backbone.
-
Metabolic Profiling: Investigating the metabolic pathways, cytochrome P450 interactions, and excretion profiles of fluorinated xenobiotics in biochemical models.
Safety, Storage, and Regulatory Compliance
Strict adherence to standard laboratory safety protocols ($GLP$) is required during handling.
