3-Bromomethcathinone (3-BMC) is a stimulant designer drug and monoamine releasing agent of the cathinone family.[1][2][3][4] It acts as a serotonin–norepinephrine–dopamine releasing agent (SNDRA), with EC50 values for induction of monoamine release of 136–137 nM for serotonin, 25 nM for norepinephrine, and 21–28 nM for dopamine in rat brain synaptosomes.[2][3][4] The drug produces hyperlocomotion in rodents comparably to but with slightly lower potency than methcathinone.[5][6] The chemical synthesis of 3-BMC has been described.[6] 3-BMC was first described in the scientific literature by 2002.[7][6] It emerged as a novel designer drug in Israel and Germany and elsewhere in 2009.[1]

In a locomotor assay in rats, 3-bromomethcathinone (21; Figure 5) produced hyperlocomotion at doses of 7.5 and 10 mg/kg comparable to that produced by methcathinone at 5 mg/kg, whereas 4-bromomethcathinone (22), now termed brephedrone or 4-BMC, was inactive at these doses (Foley and Cozzi, 2003).
