5-MeO-NBnT, also known as N-benzyl-5-methoxytryptamine or as 5-MeO-T-NB, is a serotonin receptor agonist of the tryptamine and 5-methoxytryptamine families related to 5-MeO-NMT. [1] [2] [3] [4]

Pharmacology

Pharmacodynamics

5-MeO-NBnT binds to the serotonin 5-HT2A, 5-HT2B, and 5-HT2C receptors (Ki = 5.3–55 nM, 16.6 nM, and 95.5–370 nM, respectively). [2] [4] It was assessed and found to be a potent partial agonist of the serotonin 5-HT2A receptor (EC50 Tooltip half-maximal effective concentration = 20.4–100 nM; Emax Tooltip maximal efficacy = 30–63%) and full agonist of the serotonin 5-HT2C receptor (EC50 = 14.5 nM; Emax = 113%). [3] [5] [6] [4] The drug was not evaluated in terms of effects in animals. [2] [3] [4]
