Difluoromethylenedioxyamphetamine (DFMDA, DiFMDA) is a substituted derivative of

These compounds have not yet been tested in animals to verify whether they show similar pharmacological activity to the non-fluorinated parent compounds, although in vitro binding studies show DFMDA to have a SERT affinity in between that of MDA and MDMA.^[4] It is also now generally accepted that MDMA neurotoxicity results from a variety of different causes and is not solely due to accumulation of alpha-methyldopamine,^[5][6][7] making it unclear how much less neurotoxic DFMDA and related drugs would be in practice.
