History

1-(1,3-BENZODIOXOL-5-YL)PROPAN-2-AMINE(4764-17-4) was first synthesized by G. Mannish and W. Jacobson in 1910.
Researchers have investigated many possible uses in the past,but there are no currently accepted medical uses for 1-(1,3-BENZODIOXOL-5-YL)PROPAN-2-AMINE(4764-17-4).
1-(1,3-BENZODIOXOL-5-YL)PROPAN-2-AMINE(4764-17-4) was first ingested in July of 1930 by Gordon Alles who then licensed the drug to Smith Kline and French.
 1-(1,3-BENZODIOXOL-5-YL)PROPAN-2-AMINE(4764-17-4) was first used in animal tests in 1939, and human trials began in 1941 in the exploration of possible therapies for Parkinson's disease.  More than 500 human subjects were given 1-(1,3-BENZODIOXOL-5-YL)PROPAN-2-AMINE(4764-17-4) in an investigation of its potential use as an antidepressant and/or anorectic by Smith, Kline & French from 1949 to 1957. The United States Army also experimented with the drug.  MDA was patented as a cough suppressant by H. D. Brown in 1958 and as an anorectic  in 1961.

Uses

Although it's inexpensive ,1-(1,3-BENZODIOXOL-5-YL)PROPAN-2-AMINE(4764-17-4) is   readily available as a research chemical from several scientific supply houses .

Production

Synthesis of 1-(1,3-BENZODIOXOL-5-YL)PROPAN-2-AMINE(4764-17-4) is to turn safrole into isosafrole via isomerization.
The most common route of 1-(1,3-BENZODIOXOL-5-YL)PROPAN-2-AMINE(4764-17-4) is by starting from piperonal, and condensing it with nitroethane, then with a suitable reducing agent The resulting nitro-isosafrole can be reduced to 1-(1,3-BENZODIOXOL-5-YL)PROPAN-2-AMINE(4764-17-4) .
