1-Aminoindane (1-AI), also known as 1-aminoindan, 1-indanylamine, or 1-indanamine, is an aminoindane. [1] It is a positional isomer of 2-aminoindane. [1] A variety of notable derivatives of 1- and 2-aminoindane are known. [1] [2] [3] The (R)-enantiomer of 1-aminoindan, (R)-1-aminoindan, is pharmacologically active and is an active metabolite of the antiparkinsonian agent rasagiline. [2] [4] [5]
Through its (R)-enantiomer (R)-1-aminoindane, 1-aminoindane has pharmacological activity. [2] [4] [5] It specifically shows neuroprotective and catecholamine-modulating actions. [2] [4] [5]
1-Aminoindane is an aminoindane. [1] It is a racemic mixture of (R)- and (S)-enantiomers. [6] The (R)-enantiomer is (R)-1-aminoindan, which has pharmacological activity and is an active metabolite of the antiparkinsonian agent rasagiline. [2] [4] [5]
A number of notable 1-aminoindane derivatives exist. These include the following:
Jimscaline, 2CB-Ind, and AMMI are derivatives of 1-aminomethylindane, an indane- and amine-containing compound closely related to 1-aminoindane.
1-Aminoindane is a positional isomer of 2-aminoindane. [1] A variety of notable 2-aminoindane derivatives also exist. [2] [1]
