MDMA (3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine) in its “pure” powder form—often colloquially termed Molly—is a synthetic empathogen and stimulant primarily studied for its potential in treating post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). In medical and forensic research, its properties are described as follows:
Physical and Chemical Properties
- Appearance: Research-grade MDMA usually exists as the hydrochloride (HCl) salt form, which is a fine white to off-white powder or crystalline solid.
- Solubility: It is readily soluble in water and alcohol but insoluble in common organic solvents like diethyl ether.
- Odor and Taste: While high-purity MDMA is essentially odorless, it has an intensely bitter chemical taste. A faint vanilla or anise-like scent is sometimes noted due to residual precursors (safrole).
- Stability: The molecule is highly stable. Forensic studies show no significant degradation when stored in water or urine for up to 21 weeks at room temperature.
