Chemistry:Α-Propyltryptamine
From HandWiki
α-Propyltryptamine (APT, αPT, or α-PT) is a chemical compound of the tryptamine and α-alkyltryptamine families.[1] It is the α-propyl derivative of tryptamine and is a higher homologue of α-methyltryptamine (AMT) and α-ethyltryptamine (AET).[1] The compound was briefly mentioned by Alexander Shulgin in his 1997 book TiHKAL (Tryptamines I Have Known and Loved).[1] He noted that it had been synthesized but that it had never been tested in humans to his knowledge.[1] Moreover, he speculated that it would likely require a "pretty hefty dosage" for central effects based on extrapolation from the loss of potency with higher phenethylamine α-homologation like α-propylphenethylamines such as BDP (K).[1]

The α-propylhomologue (α-PT) has been made from tryptophan, and the acetate salt was recrystallized from ethyl acetate/MeOH and melted at 158–158.5 °C. It has not, to my knowledge, ever been tasted. But I suspect that it will take a pretty hefty dosage to get some CNS effect based on the loss of potency with the similar homologation in the Muni Metro series related to MDMA."
