2-Aminoindane (2-AI) is an aminoindane and research chemical with applications in neurologic disorders and psychotherapy that has also been sold as a designer drug. [1] It acts as a selective substrate for NET and DAT. [2] [3]
Synthetic aminoindanes were originally developed in the context of anti-Parkinsonian drugs as a metabolite of rasagiline and as a tool to be used in psychotherapy. Deaths related to their toxic effects have been observed both in the laboratory in animal studies and in clinical encounters. [4]
2-AI is a rigid analogue of amphetamine and partially substitutes for it in rat drug discrimination tests. [5] [6] Other related homologues and rigid analogues of amphetamine include 2-aminotetralin (2-AT), 2-amino-1,2-dihydronapthalene (2-ADN), 1-naphthylaminopropane (1-NAP), 2-naphthylaminopropane (2-NAP), 1-phenylpiperazine (1-PP), 6-AB , and 7-AB . [6] [5] [7]
There are a number of notable derivatives of 2-aminoindane that exist, including:
A number of notable derivatives of 1-aminoindan, a positional isomer of 2-aminoindan, also exist, such as rasagiline and ladostigil, among others.
Jimscaline, 2CB-Ind, and AMMI are derivatives of 1-aminomethylindane, an indane- and amine-containing compound related to 1-aminoindan.

Notes: The smaller the value, the more strongly the compound produces the effect. The assays were done in rat brain synaptosomes and human potencies may be different. See also Monoamine releasing agent § Activity profiles for a larger table with more compounds. Refs: [8] |
As of October 2015 2-AI is a controlled substance in China. [18]
Scheduled in the "Government decree on psychoactive substances banned from the consumer market". [19]
Sweden's public health agency suggested classifying 2-AI as a hazardous substance, on June 24, 2019. [20]
2-Aminoindane is not scheduled at the federal level in the United States, [21] but may be considered an analog of amphetamine, in which case purchase, sale, or possession could be prosecuted under the Federal Analog Act.
RESULTS. Methamphetamine and amphetamine potently released NE (IC50s = 14.3 and 7.0 nM) and DA (IC50s = 40.4 nM and 24.8 nM), and were much less potent releasers of 5-HT (IC50s = 740 nM and 1765 nM). [...]
