Brief overview - What is DMT N-Oxide?

DMT N-Oxide is the oxidation compound of DMT. DMT N-Oxide is also very likely psychoactive, as Shulgin hypothesized..

Oxidation can occur naturally (extended exposure to air) or artificially (by using Hydrogen Peroxide). The rate at which oxidation naturally occurs is unknown, but its suspected oxidation to crystals is often superficial, since long term stored DMT remains solid, though sometimes bit darker and more waxy (and N-Oxide is more often described as an oil).

Chemical and physical properties

For solubility, reconversion back to DMT, etc, check the N-Oxide Chemical and Physical WIKI

Effects

Effects should be similar to DMT when smoked.
