    History & Culture

    The synthesis of 2-fluorodeschloroketamine was first described in a 2013 scientific paper as part of a broader effort to synthesize and evaluate novel anesthetic compounds based on ketamine and its structural analogues. Despite this early documentation, the compound's origins as a recreational substance remain poorly established. It first emerged on the online research chemical market around 2017, where it was marketed as a legal alternative to ketamine. Its introduction followed the successful market entry of the related analogue deschloroketamine. The compound was first formally notified to the European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction (EMCDDA) in 2016, alongside 65 other new psychoactive substances. Due to its relatively recent emergence, limited scientific research has been conducted on the compound. In January 2023, the Israeli biotechnology company Clearmind Medicine Inc. announced the completion of a preclinical study examining 2-fluorodeschloroketamine in a rat model of depression, with results suggesting the compound produced longer-lasting antidepressant effects compared to ketamine.
