DiPT

Diisopropyltryptamine (DiPT) is a psychedelic drug that is part of the tryptamine family. It is known for its unique effect on auditory perception, causing distortions in the user's sense of sound that are not found with other hallucinogens.

History

DiPT was first synthesized in the 1970s by Alexander Shulgin, a renowned chemist and psychopharmacologist. Shulgin included DiPT in his book TiHKAL (Tryptamines I Have Known and Loved), where he described its synthesis and effects.

Chemistry

DiPT is a derivative of tryptamine with two isopropyl groups attached to the amino group. It is structurally similar to the neurotransmitter serotonin, which is also a tryptamine. The drug is usually taken orally, but can also be snorted or injected.

Effects

The primary effect of DiPT is a distortion of auditory perception. Users report changes in the perceived pitch of sounds, with some sounds seeming to drop in pitch. This effect is unique to DiPT and is not found with other psychedelic drugs. Other effects can include visual hallucinations, altered thought processes, and changes in mood.

Legal status

DiPT is a Schedule I controlled substance in the United States, meaning it is illegal to manufacture, buy, possess, or distribute without a license from the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). It is also controlled in several other countries, including the United Kingdom and Canada.
