GV (IUPAC name: 2-(Dimethylamino)ethyl N,N-dimethylphosphoramidofluoridate), also known as EA-5365 and GP (USACC cryptonym), is an organophosphate nerve agent. GV is a part of a series of nerve agents with properties similar to the "G-series" and "V-series". It is a potent acetylcholinesterase inhibitor with properties similar to other nerve agents. GV is structurally a derivative of the nerve agent tabun, being closely structurally related to fluorotabun, differing from the latter by the replacement of a proton on the alpha carbon of the alkoxide group by a dimethylamino group and presenting a toxicity only lower than that of VX.[1][2]

Treatment for poisoning with GV involves drugs such as atropine, benactyzine, obidoxime, and HI-6.[3][4]
