# A-68930

A-68930 is a synthetic compound that acts as a selective dopamine receptor $D_1$ agonist. It is orally active and has antidepressant and anorectic effects in animals, producing wakefulness and tachycardia, but without stimulant effects, instead producing sedation. The difference in effects between A-68930 and other $D_1$ agonists such as SKF-82958 may be due to their differing effects on the related $D_5$ receptor.
