==Chemistry==

4F-MPH is a synthetic molecule of the [[substituted phenethylamine]] and [[substituted phenidate]] classes, and a fluorinated analog of [[methylphenidate]]. 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. Additionally, it contains a methyl acetate bound to R2 or its structure. 4F-MPH is structurally identical to methylphenidate with the exception of a single fluorine atom bound to the four position on the phenethylamine core.

4F-MPH is a synthetic molecule of the [[substituted phenethylamine]] and [[substituted phenidate]] classes, and a fluorinated analog of [[methylphenidate]]. 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 R<sub>α</sub> which is incorporated into a [[piperidine]] ring ending at the terminal amine of the phenethylamine chain. Additionally, it contains a methyl acetate bound to R<sub>β</sub> or its structure. 4F-MPH is structurally identical to methylphenidate with the exception of a single fluorine atom bound to the four position on the phenethylamine core.

With respect to nomenclature, the methyl- in [[methylphenidate]] regards the side chain of one carbon atom, while phen- indicates the phenyl ring. Id- is contracted from a [[piperidine]] ring, and -ate indicates the acetate group containing the oxygen atoms. Like its parent molecule, 4F-MPH is a chiral compound, presumably produced as a racemic mixture.
