2,3-Dihydro-5-methoxy-6-methyl-1H-inden-2-amine Hydrochloride

Description

MMAI is a psychoactive aminoindan which can be found in recreational drug mixtures. It potently inhibits serotonin uptake (IC₅₀ = 212 nM) and stimulates its release without inducing the neurotoxicity induced by 3,4-methylenedioxy methamphetamine and similar compounds. This product is intended for forensic and research applications.

Uses

2,3-Dihydro-5-methoxy-6-methyl-1H-inden-2-amine is an highly selective serotonin releasing agent and produces entactogen effects.
