4F-EPH, or 4-fluoroethylphenidate, is a synthetic molecule of the [[phenidate]] and [[substituted phenethylamine]] classes. It contains a phenethylamine core featuring a phenyl ring bound to an amino -NH2 group through an ethyl chain. It is structurally similar to [[amphetamine]], featuring a substitution at Rα which is incorporated into a [[piperidine]] ring ending at the terminal amine of the phenethylamine chain. It contains an ethyl acetate bound to R2 of its structure and is fluorinated at R4 of its phenyl ring.

It is structurally similar to [[amphetamine]], featuring a substitution at Rα which is incorporated into a [[piperidine]] ring ending at the terminal amine of the phenethylamine chain. It contains an ethyl acetate bound to Rβ of its structure and is fluorinated at R4 of its phenyl ring.

4F-EPH is the 4-substituted flourine derivative of [[ethylphenidate]], and is structurally different to [[methylphenidate]] by elongation of the carbon chain and the addition of a fluorine group. ''Ethyl-'' regards the side chain of two carbon atoms, ''phen-'' indicates the phenyl ring, ''id-'' is contracted from a piperidine ring, and ''-ate'' indicates the acetate group containing the oxygens. 4F-EPH is a chiral compound, presumably produced as a racemic mixture.
