5-Ethyl-DMT[edit | edit source]
5-Ethyl-DMT, or 5-ethyl-N,N-dimethyltryptamine, is a psychedelic compound belonging to the tryptamine class. It is structurally related to other tryptamines such as DMT (N,N-dimethyltryptamine) and 5-MeO-DMT (5-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine).
Chemical Structure[edit | edit source]
5-Ethyl-DMT is characterized by the presence of an ethyl group at the 5-position of the indole ring, distinguishing it from other tryptamines. The chemical formula is C14H20N2, and it has a molecular weight of 216.33 g/mol.
Pharmacology[edit | edit source]
As a tryptamine, 5-Ethyl-DMT is believed to act primarily as a serotonin receptor agonist, particularly at the 5-HT2A receptor, which is thought to be responsible for its psychedelic effects. However, detailed studies on its pharmacological profile are limited.
Effects[edit | edit source]
The effects of 5-Ethyl-DMT are not well-documented, but it is presumed to produce psychedelic experiences similar to other tryptamines, potentially including alterations in perception, mood, and cognition. The duration and intensity of these effects can vary based on dosage and individual factors.
Legal Status[edit | edit source]
The legal status of 5-Ethyl-DMT varies by country. In many jurisdictions, it may be considered a controlled substance due to its structural similarity to other regulated tryptamines.
