2,4-Dichloroamphetamine

(Redirected from 2,4-dichloroamphetamine)

2,4-Dichloroamphetamine (2,4-DCA) is a psychostimulant of the amphetamine family and a potent serotonergic neurotoxin related to para-chloroamphetamine (PCA; 4-chloroamphetamine).[1][2] It is also a potent monoamine oxidase inhibitor in addition to the aforementioned activities.[1][3][2]
