ASR-3001, also known as 5-methoxy-N-allyl-N-isopropyltryptamine (5-MeO-iPALT), is a serotonin receptor agonist and serotonergic psychedelic of the tryptamine and 5-methoxytryptamine families which is under development for the treatment of psychiatric disorders. [4] [1] [2] [3] [5] It is a close analogue of related psychedelic tryptamines like 5-MeO-DALT, 5-MeO-DiPT, and 5-MeO-MiPT. [5]

The drug acts as a non-selective agonist of the serotonin receptors. [5] This includes of the serotonin 5-HT2A, 5-HT2B, 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B, and 5-HT6 receptors, whereas other serotonin receptors, such as the serotonin 5-HT2C receptor, were not described. [5] Its EC50 Tooltip half-maximal effective concentration values were 9.85 nM at the serotonin 5-HT2A receptor, 46.8 nM at the serotonin 5-HT1B receptor, 87.4 nM at the serotonin 5-HT2B receptor, 420 nM at the serotonin 5-HT6 receptor, and 642 nM at the serotonin 5-HT1A receptor. [5] The drug was also a very weak serotonin reuptake inhibitor (IC50 Tooltip half-maximal inhibitory concentration = 6,840 nM), but did not inhibit norepinephrine or dopamine reuptake. [5] It also showed little or no activity at various other sites. [5]

ASR-3001 is said to be orally active, fast- and short-acting, and to induce "an internal psychedelic cognitive state [or head space] with little or no sensory involvement". [1] [2] [3] These properties are expected to allow ASR-3001 to serve as a potential "entry point" for people reluctant to undergo a fully immersive psychedelic experience including visuals. [1] Its dose range is 8 to 14 mg (or perhaps up to 10 mg), its onset is within 15 minutes, and its duration is described only as "short". [1] [2] [3]

ASR-3001 is under development by the Nicholas V. Cozzi and Paul F. Daley and colleagues at the Alexander Shulgin Research Institute (ASRI). [4] [1] It was first described by 2023 and was patented the same year. [1] [5] As of early 2025, ASR-3001 is in the preclinical research stage of development. [4] [6]

Other related analogues of ASR-3001 include ASR-3002 (2-Me-iPALT), ASR-3003 (iPALT), and ASR-3004 (PALT), among others. [5]
