  • The 5-HT₂A antagonist M100907 fully blocks behavioral effects of 2C-class compounds in rats, confirming receptor dependence.supported

    5-HT2A antagonist M100907 completely blocked all behavioral effects of 2C-C, 2C-I, 25C-NBOMe, 25I-NBOMe in rats. Confirms 5-HT2A as primary mediator. j.neuropharm.2018.02.033

  • The 2,5-dimethoxy scaffold is essential for in vivo 5-HT₂A activation — removal of either methoxy group significantly reduces head-twitch response in mice even when in vitro binding is only modestly attenuatedsupported

    Removal of either methoxy significantly reduces in vivo head-twitch response despite modest in vitro effects. 2,5-dimethoxy motif important for in vivo potency. acschemneuro.0c00129
