Chemistry:DOM-AI

From HandWiki

DOM-AI, also known as 4,7-dimethoxy-5-methyl-2-aminoindane, is a putative serotonergic psychedelic of the 2-aminoindane family related to DOM.[1][2][3][4] It is a cyclized phenethylamine and the cyclized 2-aminoindane analogue of DOM.[1][2][4]

The drug fully substituted for LSD in rodent drug discrimination tests, suggesting that it may have hallucinogenic effects in humans.[4] However, DOM-AI was much less potent than DOM in these tests, with an ED50 of 2.18 mg/kg, which was approximately 1/15th that of DOM.[4] Nonetheless, DOM-AI is still active in showing psychedelic-like effects in animals, in contrast to its analogues DOM-AT and DOM-CR.[4][5]

DOM-AI was first described in the scientific literature by David E. Nichols and colleagues in 1974.[1][6]

Other cyclized analogues of DOM and related psychedelics besides DOM-AI, DOM-AT, and DOM-CR include DMCPA, TFMBOX, jimscaline, TCB-2, LPH-5, and ZC-B.[7][8][2]

[...] Compounds 5a and 5b did not substitute in MDMA-trained rats, although 5a substituted in LSD-trained rats, but with relatively low potency compared to its open-chain counterpart. [...] The results of the drug discrimination studies in rats are presented in Tables I and II. In the LSD-trained rats, stimulus generalization did not occur with any of the compounds 3a,b, 4a,b or 5b. [...] However, indan 5a gave full substitution, with an ED50 = 2.18 mg/kg, approximately 1/15 the potency of the hallucinogen DOM in this assay.24 Earlier studies of this compound, using disruption of a conditioned-avoidance response, did not produce results suggestive of hallucinogenlike activity.18".
