Chemistry:DOTMA

From HandWiki

DOTMA, also known as 2,5-dimethoxy-3,4,6-trimethylamphetamine or as Julia, is a psychedelic drug of the phenethylamine, amphetamine, and DOx families related to DOM.[1] It is the 3,6-dimethyl derivative of DOM and the 6-methyl derivative of Ganesha.[1] The drug is said to be the first and only known active phenethylamine psychedelic with a fully substituted phenyl ring.[1] However, the cyclized FLY phenethylamines such as 2C-B-FLY also have a fully substituted phenyl ring.[1]

DOTMA's dose is approximately 70 mg orally and its duration is 7 to 9 hours.[1] It is less potent than DOM, which is active at doses of 3 to 10 mg, and has a shorter duration than DOM, which lasts 14 to 20 hours.[1] Similarly, DOTMA is less potent and shorter-acting than Ganesha, which has a dose of 20 to 32 mg and a duration of 18 to 24 hours.[1]

DOTMA was described in the scientific literature by Daniel Trachsel in 2013.[1] The 6-methyl-DOM analogue of DOTMA and Ganesha, Juno, is relatively unknown but may be an active psychedelic as well.[1] DOTMA, or Julia, is closely related to Alexander Shulgin's "ten classic ladies".[2][3] It is a controlled substance in Canada due to phenethylamine blanket-ban language[4] but is not explicitly controlled in the United States.[5]
