'''NM2AI''' ('''N-methyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-2-amine''' / '''N-methyl-2-AI''') is a psychoactive drug and research chemical with [[stimulant]] properties. In comparison to the more prevalent close chemical relative known as [[2-AI]], this compound has a lower potency, a longer duration and very similar effects. Besides this, very little is known about this substance. It has recently become freely available through online research chemical vendors where it is sold as a designer drug. | '''NM2AI''' ('''N-methyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-2-amine''' / '''N-methyl-2-AI''') is a psychoactive drug and [[research chemical]] with [[stimulant]] properties.

NM2AI, or N-methyl-2-AI, is the N-methylated derivative of [[2-Aminoindane]] and is analogous to [[amphetamine]]. It features the R<sub>3</sub> terminal carbon of the propane chain of amphetamine bound to the benzene ring. This creates an indane, a bicycle containing a benzene ring fused to a pentane ring. The amino group 2-AI shares with amphetamine is bound to R<sub>2</sub> of the indane group. N-methyl-2-AI contains a methyl group bound to the amino group R<sub>N</sub> (for which it is named). | NM2AI, or N-methyl-2-AI, is the N-methylated derivative of [[2-Aminoindane]] and is analogous to [[amphetamine]].

The toxicity and long-term health effects of recreational NM2AI use have not been studied in any scientific context and the exact toxic dosage is unknown. This is because NM2AI is a research chemical with very little history of human usage. Anecdotal evidence from people within the [[psychonaut]] community who have tried NM2AI suggests that there are no negative health effects attributed to simply trying the drug by itself at low to moderate doses or using it very sparingly (but nothing can be completely guaranteed). [https://www.google.com/ Independent research] should always be done to ensure that a combination of two or more substances is safe before consumption. | The toxicity and long-term health effects of recreational NM2AI use have not been studied in any scientific context and the exact toxic dosage is unknown.
