Methoxetamine, or (RS)2-(3-methoxyphenyl)-2-(ethylamino)cyclohexanone, is classed as an [[arylcyclohexylamine]] drug. Ayrlcyclohexylamine drugs are named for their structures which include a cyclohexane ring bound to an aromatic ring along with an amine group. MXE contains a phenyl ring with a methoxy (CH<sub>3</sub>-O-) substituent at R<sub>3</sub> bonded to a cyclohexane ring substituted at R<sub>2</sub> with an oxo group (cyclohexanone). Bound to the same location (R<sub>1</sub>) of the cyclohexanone ring is an amino ethyl chain -N-CH<sub>2</sub>CH<sub>3</sub>.
