Stimulus properties of some analogues of 4-methylaminorex.

The stimulus properties of aminorex and analogues of 4-methylaminorex, namely (4S,5S)-4-methylaminorex, N-methyl-(4S,5S)-4-methylaminorex, and the regioisomeric (R)- and (S)-2-amino-4-phenyl-2-oxazoline (rexamino) were compared in rats trained to distinguish (S)-amphetamine (1 mg/kg) from saline. The first three compounds, aminorex, (4S,5S)-4-methylaminorex, and N-methyl-(4S,5S)-4-methylaminorex shared discriminative stimulus effects with amphetamine, although the stimulus properties for racemic aminorex were less than those of the other two compounds. The two regioisomers, (R)- and (S)-rexamino, produced only partial generalisation to the amphetamine.
