6-MeO-isoDMT (6-Methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine) is a psychedelic compound belonging to the tryptamine class. It is structurally related to other tryptamines such as 5-MeO-DMT and DMT, but with a methoxy group at the 6-position of the indole ring.
Chemical structure and properties[edit | edit source]
6-MeO-isoDMT is a synthetic compound that features a methoxy group at the 6-position of the indole ring, distinguishing it from other tryptamines. The presence of this methoxy group influences its pharmacological properties and receptor binding affinity. The compound's full chemical name is 1-(6-Methoxy-1H-indol-3-yl)-N,N-dimethylmethanamine.
Pharmacology[edit | edit source]
The pharmacological effects of 6-MeO-isoDMT are not well-documented, but it is believed to act as a serotonin receptor agonist, similar to other psychedelic tryptamines. The compound likely interacts with the 5-HT2A receptor, which is known to play a significant role in the psychedelic effects of tryptamines.
Effects[edit | edit source]
