It reminds me a bit of a phytoestrogen called 4EM, 4-(Ethoxymethyl)phenol [57726-26-8].

Stick an alkene between the methoxy group of MMDA and amphetamine and i could see some cleavage going on in stomach acids. However if it was a prodrug, you would get way fucked up on the amphetamine component way before the MMDA even makes an appearance.

Terrible idea. Methyl iodide and lithium aluminum hydride are both chemicals that are extremely hazardous.

Besides that - you don't get the product you want. You get mixtures including the quaternary ammonium compounds.
But there is a name-reaction that under the correct conditions, gives almost quantitative yields. Note I have named neither the reaction nor the conditions - so anyone who understands it ALREADY KNEW.Smyth2

Check this compound: AW-15'1129.
Can't seem to get this reference though: B. Roth, J. Faber and S. Nevs̈imalova, Activ. Nerv. Super., 14, 35 (1972).4DQSAR

IF homologues in which that p-Cl can be substituted for , say, a thiomethyl or ethynyl are known, those might be more interesting.
I assume one enantiomer is the active or at least far more potent so this is an example of evergreening.4DQSAR

So using those old-school rules on choosing a chiral ligand to resolve enantiomers, it's not hard to choose a chiral diacid although I would always think about camphor-10-sulfonic acid because you are going to wind up with a salt that crashes right out...
But what you choose for bench-scale synthesis isn't really important. Yeild need only be 'enough' whereas any chemical engineer will really work to find the cheapest resolution. I see that the route given wouldn't allow the resolution of the precursor.
BTW assuming that slow onset and long DOA were design goals, the p-Me homologue would be the obvious one to test the scaffold. If nothing else, that methyl is nigh on perfect if you want to keep the ADME simple. I term such groups as 'sacrificial moieties' on the basis that they serve two purposes. They are required for the saught activity but also act as a labile moiety so you KNOW it will just be oxidized and gluconated.
