AMDA (9-Aminomethyl-9,10-dihydroanthracene) is an organic compound which acts as a potent and selective antagonist for the 5-HT_2A receptor.^[1] It has been used to help study the shape of the 5-HT_2A protein,^[2] and develop a large family of related derivatives with even higher potency and selectivity.^{[3][4][5][6][7]}
