Biochemical pharmacology, 32(7), 1267-1273 (1983-04-01)
Animals (rats), trained to discriminate the hallucinogenic agent 1-(2,5-dimethoxy-4-methylphenyl)-2-aminopropane (DOM) from saline in a two-lever operant procedure, were challenged with various doses of several indolealkylamine and phenalkylamine derivatives. In both series, the alpha-methyl analogs were found to be more active

The alpha-methylated substrate-analogue monoamines, dl-alpha-methyltryptamine, dl-alpha-methylbenzylamine and two optical isomers of alpha-methylbenzylamine, were shown to be inhibitors of rat lung semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase (SSAO), with dl-alpha-methyltryptamine being the most potent and d-alpha-methylbenzylamine, the least. The three compounds, dl-alpha-methyltryptamine and the
