Short description: Chemical compound

5-Methyl-3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine (5-Methyl-MDA) is an entactogen and psychedelic designer drug of the amphetamine class. It is a ring-methylated homologue of MDA and a structural isomer of MDMA.^[1]

Effects and research

Drug discrimination studies showed that 5-methyl-MDA substitutes for MDA, MMAI, and LSD, but not amphetamine, suggesting that it produces a mix of entactogen and hallucinogenic effects without any stimulant effects.^{[citation needed]}

5-Methyl-MDA acts as a selective serotonin releasing agent (SSRA) with IC₅₀ values of 107nM, 11,600nM, and 1,494nM for serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine efflux.^[1] It is over 5 times more potent than MDA in vitro assays, with a suitable active dose possibly in vivo being around 15–25 mg.^[1] Subsequent testing in vivo, however, has found that it is not as potent as once thought and is active at at least 100 mg. 2-Methyl-MDA is also much more potent than MDA, but is not quite as potent as 5-methyl-MDA.^[1] 6-methyl-MDMA (also known as Madam-6) is mostly inactive, likely due to steric hindrance.^[1]^[2]

Recent research has used data on 2-methyl-MDA and 5-methyl-MDA to help guide computer modeling of the serotonin transporter complex.^[3]

Legal status

5-Methyl-MDA is not scheduled by the United Nations ' Convention on Psychotropic Substances.^[4]

United States

5-Methyl-MDA is not scheduled at the federal level in the United States ,^[5] but it is possible that 5-Methyl-MDA could legally be considered an analog of MDA, in which case, sales or possession could potentially be prosecuted under the Federal Analogue Act.^[6]
