Substituted phenidates (also known as phenidates) are a class of chemicals that include compounds that typically produce traditional stimulant effects. Pharmacologically, they tend to act as reuptake inhibitors of the monoamine neurotransmitters dopamine and norepinephrine, and occasionally serotonin.[citation needed]
Chemistry
Substituted phenidates are a chemical class based upon the molecule methylphenidate. The molecular structure of methylphenidate is comprised of a phenethylamine core with a carbon chain substitution at the Rα position that links to the RN position, forming a piperidine ring. It also includes a substitution at the Rβ position of methyl acetate.
