DOH-5-hemiFLY, or DMA-hemiFly-5, also known as semi-fly (SF), is a serotonin receptor modulator and putative psychedelic drug of the phenethylamine, amphetamine, DOx, and benzofuran families related to 2,5-dimethoxyamphetamine (2,5-DMA; DOH). [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] It is a cyclized derivative of 2,5-DMA related to the FLY psychedelics. [1] [4] [5] The drug shows affinity for the serotonin 5-HT2A receptor (Ki = 146 nM) and fully substitutes for LSD in rodent drug discrimination tests, albeit with relatively low potency. [1] [4] [5] The chemical synthesis of DOH-5-hemiFLY has been described. [5] DOH-5-hemiFLY was first described in the scientific literature by David E. Nichols and colleagues in 1991. [1] [5]

For example, the 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-6-yl compounds 31 and 32 have been shown to lack LSD-like activity, whereas the dihydrobenzofuran-4-yl compound 33 is as potent as its flexible 5-methoxy analog DOB (Table l; Nichols et al., 1991 c). These studies clearly show that the preferred orientation of the 5-methoxy group is anti with respect to the 4 substituent.

[184] DD tests showed full substitution for both compounds in rats trained to discriminate LSD from saline, with the 7-bromo analogue 36 (ED50=0.57 mmol kg/1 ) more potent than DOM (15, ED50= 0.89 mmol kg/1 ) and equipotent to DOB (16). Binding affinity and energy calculations confirmed that these rigid analogues model the active binding conformation of DOM (15).[184]
