What Is MDMA – XTC? Understanding the Molecule
3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA), commonly referred to in commercial contexts as XTC or Ecstasy, is a substituted amphetamine and a prominent member of the entactogen/empathogen class. Originally synthesized in 1912 by Merck chemists, MDMA is unique in its pharmacological profile, bridging the gap between central nervous system stimulants and classic psychedelic substances.
