2-Amino-1,2-dihydronapthalene (2-ADN), also known as 2-aminodilin (2-AD), is a stimulant drug.[1] It is a rigid analogue of phenylisobutylamine and substitutes for amphetamine in rat discrimination tests, although at approximately one fourth the potency.[1] It is closely related to 2-aminotetralin (2-amino-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene), which also substitutes for amphetamine, and is about two times as potent in comparison.[1]
