Ariadne (also known as 4C-D, 4C-DOM, α-Et-2C-D, BL-3912, or dimoxamine) is a lesser-known psychedelic drug. It is a homologue of 2C-D and DOM. Ariadne was first synthesized by Alexander Shulgin. In his book PiHKAL, Shulgin reported testing Ariadne up to a dose of 32 mg, and reported that it produces psychedelia at a bare threshold.[1] Very little data exists about the pharmacological properties, metabolism, and toxicity of Ariadne in humans apart from Shulgin's limited testing.

In more an animal study, Ariadne was shown to produce stimulus generalization in rats trained to respond to the drug MDMA.[2]
