The effects of methoxy-substitution at the 1-, 2-, 3-, and 4-positions of 9-aminomethyl-9,10-dihydroanthracene (AMDA) on h5-HT(2A) receptor affinity were determined. Racemic mixtures of these compounds were found to show the following affinity trend: 3-MeO > 4-MeO > 1-MeO approximately 2-MeO. Comparison of the effects of these substitutions, with the aid of computational molecular modeling techniques, suggest that the various positional and stereochemical isomers of the methoxy-substituted AMDA ...[more]
