Chemistry:7-Hydroxy-DMT

From HandWiki

7-Hydroxy-DMT (7-HO-DMT), also known as 7-hydroxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine, is a serotonin receptor modulator of the tryptamine family related to dimethyltryptamine (DMT).[1][2] It is the 7-hydroxy derivative of DMT and is a positional isomer of psilocin (4-HO-DMT), bufotenin (5-HO-DMT), and 6-HO-DMT.[1][2] The drug shows affinity for serotonin receptors in the rat fundus strip.[1][2] However, it had the lowest serotonin receptor affinity of any other assessed compounds in a series of assessed tryptamines.[1][2] In a later study, its affinity (Ki) for the serotonin 5-HT2A receptor was >10,000 nM.[3][4] 7-Hydroxy-DMT is said to be biologically active in animals but to show low potency.[1] The drug was first described in the scientific literature by at least 1962.[5][6] It is a Schedule I controlled substance in the United States as a positional isomer of psilocin.[7][8]
