7-F-5-MeO-MET

From WikiMD's Food, Medicine & Wellness Encyclopedia

7-F-5-MeO-MET is a psychedelic and hallucinogenic compound of the tryptamine class. It is a structural analog of 5-MeO-MET, with the addition of a fluorine atom at the 7-position of the indole ring.

Chemistry[edit | edit source]

7-F-5-MeO-MET belongs to the tryptamine class of compounds, which are characterized by a core structure consisting of a bicyclic indole heterocycle attached at R3 to an amino group via an ethyl side chain. 7-F-5-MeO-MET is substituted at R5 of its indole heterocycle with a methoxy (MeO) functional group CH3O−; it also contains a fluorine atom at R7 of its indole ring.

Pharmacology[edit | edit source]

The pharmacology of 7-F-5-MeO-MET is not well-studied. However, like other tryptamines, it is thought to act as an agonist at the 5-HT2A receptor, which is involved in the cognitive, perceptual, and mood effects of psychedelics. The addition of a fluorine atom at the 7-position of the indole ring may affect the potency and duration of the compound's effects, but this has not been confirmed in scientific studies.

Effects[edit | edit source]

The effects of 7-F-5-MeO-MET are not well-documented due to its status as a research chemical. However, anecdotal reports suggest that it may produce effects similar to other tryptamines, including open and closed-eye visuals, euphoria, time distortion, and introspection. As with all psychedelics, the effects can be influenced by set and setting, as well as the individual's mindset and physical condition.

Legal Status[edit | edit source]

The legal status of 7-F-5-MeO-MET varies by country. In some jurisdictions, it may be considered a controlled substance due to its structural similarity to other controlled tryptamines. It is always recommended to check local laws before possessing or consuming this compound.
