'''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]].
