Use and effects

In his book TiHKAL (Tryptamines I Have Known and Loved), Alexander Shulgin described MPT's effects as being unknown and its dose as being >50 mg. [1]

Interactions

Chemistry

An analytical method for MPT's detection has been reported. [2] In 2019, Chadeayne et al. published the crystal structure of MPT. [3] The authors describe the structure as "...a single molecule in the asymmetric unit, with an indole group that demonstrates a mean deviation from planarity of 0.015 A°."
