The 3-FPM on the market at the moment would have 4 isomers, and I have thought about how it could be made and that the most likely method would result in both chiral carbons being racemic. 2 of the isomers both with R-configuration at the alpha carbon would not have a lot of psychostimulant activity I think. Can someone more knowledgeable please confirm that it is indeed a racemic mix or correct me if I'm wrong. Also, what configuration would the beta carbon have to be for more psychostimulant and less peripheral action? If we're going by observation of (pseudo)ephedrine then the R configuration here would also be more psychostimulatory (as ephedrine seems to be more so than pseudoephedrine).
Any insights appreciated.
