Brief overview - What is 5-MeO-DMT?
Chemical and physical properties
5-methoxy-N,N-dimethyl-tryptamine
Freebase 5-MeO-DMT
- Appearance: Off-white crystals (Sigma Aldrich)
- Composition: C13H18N20
- Molecular Weight: 218.298 g/mol
- Melting Point: 66-67°C, 67-68°C, 69-70°C (Trout's notes and TIHKAL)
- Boiling Point4 : 208-210°C @ 4mm (Hoshino & Shimodaira 1936)
- XLogP: 1.9
- XLogP3: 1.5 (PubChem)
- pKa: 9.3 (Ghosal & Mukherjee 1964)
- Colorimetric reagent results: Here
- Stability: Stable under normal temperatures and pressures. Incompatible with strong oxidizing agents, strong acids (Source)
- Solubility:
Soluble in: Chloroform, ether, DCM, acetone, methanol, ethanol (Trout's notes on simple tryptamines). Soluble in (at least) 20mg/ml 96% ethanol (Source).
Hexane/Naphtha/Pet ether are commonly used to crystallize it (Ott 1993, Espamer et al 1967, Morimoto & Matsumoto 1966, etc) , so it is probably moderately soluble in these solvents.
Practically Insoluble in water (Source)
5-MeO-DMT Hydrochloride
- Melting Point: 145-146°C (TIHKAL)
