In this paper, we establish exact solutions for some nonlinear fractional differential equations (FDEs). The first integral method with help of the fractional complex transform (FCT) is used to obtain exact solutions for the time fractional modified Korteweg–de Vries (fmKdV) equation and the space–time fractional modified Benjamin–Bona–Mahony (fmBBM) equation. This method is efficient and powerful in solving kind of other nonlinear FDEs.
