Abstract
The synthesis of a series of 4-substituted 1-(2,5-dimethoxyphenyl)-2-aminopropanes, in which the 4-substituent is Br, Cl, I, NO2, NH2, and NHAc, is described. These compounds are analogs of 1-(2,5-dimethoxy-4-methylphenyl)-2-aminopropane (DOM), a known hallucinogen. A synthesis of N-(2,5-dimethoxy-4-methylphenethyl)hydroxylamine, the N-hydroxy homolog of DOM, is also reported. Brief reference is made to the preliminary pharmacology of these compounds.
