2,6-Dimethylmescaline, or simply dimethylmescaline (DMe-M), also known as 2,6-dimethyl-3,4,5-trimethoxyphenethylamine, is a serotonin receptor modulator of the phenethylamine and scaline families related to mescaline. [1] It is the 2,6-dimethyl derivative of mescaline. [1] The drug shows affinity for the serotonin 5-HT1A, 5-HT2A, and 5-HT2C receptors (Ki = 45 nM, 879 nM, and 1,002 nM, respectively). [1] These affinities were 66-fold, 5.2-fold, and 7.7-fold higher than those of mescaline, respectively. [1] The drug is not known to have been tested in animals or humans. [1] 2,6-Dimethylmescaline was first described in the scientific literature by Daniel Trachsel and colleagues in 2013. [1] The source of the information cited by Trachsel and colleagues was personal communication with David E. Nichols in 2010. [1]
