6-MeO-DMT, or 6-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine, also known as 6-OMe-DMT, is a serotonergic drug of the tryptamine family. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It is the 6- methoxy derivative of the serotonergic psychedelic N , N -dimethyltryptamine (DMT) and is a positional isomer of the serotonergic psychedelic 5-MeO-DMT .
N,N-Dimethyltryptamine (DMT or N,N-DMT) is a substituted tryptamine that occurs in many plants and animals, including humans, and which is both a derivative and a structural analog of tryptamine. [1] [2] [3] DMT is used as a psychedelic drug and prepared by various cultures for ritual purposes as an entheogen. [9]
5-MeO-DMT is lipophilic and is thought to easily cross the blood–brain barrier. [2] Accordingly, 5-MeO-DMT readily accumulates in the brain in animals with levels higher than in blood. [2] This is in notable contrast to bufotenin (5-HO-DMT or N,N-dimethylserotonin) and serotonin (5-HT), which are hydrophilic and peripherally selective. [2 ...
DMT is the archetypal substituted tryptamine, being the structural scaffold of psilocybin and – to a lesser extent – the lysergamides. LSD (Lysergic acid diethylamide) is a derivative of lysergic acid, which is obtained from the hydrolysis of ergotamine. Ergotamine is an alkaloid found in the fungus Claviceps purpurea, which primarily ...
A 37-year-old acid attack victim from Tabriz, Iran. An acid attack, [1] also called acid throwing, vitriol attack, or vitriolage, is a form of violent assault [2] [3] [4] involving the act of throwing acid or a similarly corrosive substance onto the body of another "with the intention to disfigure, maim, torture, or kill". [5]
As with DMT, CYB004 is a potent agonist of the serotonin 5-HT 2A receptor and produces psychedelic-like effects in animals. [ 1 ] [ 5 ] [ 3 ] However, CYB004, due to its deuteration, is more resistant to metabolism than DMT and shows a longer elimination half-life (by 2.5- to 2.9-fold) and slower clearance (by 38 to 55%) in animals. [ 3 ]
Bufotenin, also known as dimethylserotonin or as 5-hydroxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine (5-HO-DMT), is a tryptamine derivative, more specifically, a dimethyltryptamine (DMT) analogue, related to the neurotransmitter serotonin. It is an alkaloid found in some species of mushrooms, plants and toads, especially the skin.
In chemistry, a superacid (according to the original definition) is an acid with an acidity greater than that of 100% pure sulfuric acid (H 2 SO 4), [1] which has a Hammett acidity function (H 0) of −12. According to the modern definition, a superacid is a medium in which the chemical potential of the proton is higher than in pure sulfuric ...
