Propylisopropyltryptamine (PiPT) is a chemical in the tryptamine family, which reportedly produces psychedelic and hallucinogenic effects that resemble those of other related dialkyl tryptamine derivatives, [1] although PiPT is reportedly relatively weak and short lasting. It has been sold as a designer drug, first being identified in 2021 in British Columbia, Canada. [2]

Contents

Chemistry

PiPT is short for N-propyl-N-isopropyl-tryptamine . PiPT is a tryptamine, which all belong to a larger family of compounds known as indolethyl amines. PiPT is closely related to the compounds DPT and DiPT.

Dosage

PiPT is reported as being active at doses of 50-100mg orally, or 25mg smoked.[ citation needed ]

Effects

Very little is known about the psychopharmacological properties of PiPT, but reports suggest it produces psychedelic effects similar to those of other hallucinogenic tryptamine derivatives, that can last around 2-4 hours.[ citation needed ]

Dangers

There have been no reported deaths or hospitalizations from PiPT, but its safety profile is unknown.[ citation needed ]

Legality

PiPT is unscheduled and uncontrolled in the United States, but possession and sales of PiPT could be prosecuted under the Federal Analog Act because of its structural similarities to other hallucinogenic tryptamine derivatives.

5-MeO-MiPT is a psychedelic and hallucinogenic drug, used by some as an entheogen. It has structural and pharmacodynamic properties similar to the drugs 5-MeO-DiPT, DiPT, and MiPT. It is commonly used as a "substitute" for 5-MeO-DiPT because of the very similar structure and effects.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">4-HO-MiPT</span> Chemical compound

4-HO-MiPT is a synthetic substituted aromatic compound and a lesser-known psychedelic tryptamine. It is thought to be a serotonergic psychedelic, similar to magic mushrooms, LSD and mescaline. Its molecular structure and pharmacological effects somewhat resemble those of the tryptamine psilocin, which is the primary psychoactive chemical in magic mushrooms.

<i>O</i>-Acetylpsilocin Semi-synthetic psychoactive drug

Psilacetin, also known as O-acetylpsilocin or as 4-acetoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine, is a semi-synthetic serotonergic psychedelic drug that has been suggested by David Nichols to be a potentially useful alternative to psilocybin for pharmacological studies, as they are both believed to be prodrugs of psilocin. However, some users report that O-acetylpsilocin's subjective effects differ from those of psilocybin and psilocin. Additionally, some users prefer 4-AcO-DMT to natural psilocybin mushrooms due to feeling fewer adverse side effects such as nausea and heavy body load, which are more frequently reported in experiences involving natural mushrooms. It is the acetylated form of the psilocybin mushroom alkaloid psilocin and is a lower homolog of 4-AcO-MET, 4-AcO-DET, 4-AcO-MiPT and 4-AcO-DiPT.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Ethocybin</span> Chemical compound

Ethocybin is a homologue of the mushroom alkaloid psilocybin, and a semi-synthetic psychedelic alkaloid of the tryptamine family.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Substituted tryptamine</span> Class of indoles

Substituted tryptamines, or serotonin analogues, are organic compounds which may be thought of as being derived from tryptamine itself. The molecular structures of all tryptamines contain an indole ring, joined to an amino (NH2) group via an ethyl (−CH2–CH2−) sidechain. In substituted tryptamines, the indole ring, sidechain, and/or amino group are modified by substituting another group for one of the hydrogen (H) atoms.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">6-Fluoro-DET</span> Chemical compound

6-Fluoro-DET is a substituted tryptamine derivative related to drugs such as DET and 5-fluoro-DET. It acts as a partial agonist at the 5-HT2A receptor, but while it produces similar physiological effects to psychedelic drugs, it does not appear to produce psychedelic effects itself even at high doses. For this reason it saw some use as an active placebo in early clinical trials of psychedelic drugs but was regarded as having little use otherwise, though more recent research into compounds such as AL-34662, TBG and AAZ-A-154 has shown that these kind of non-psychedelic 5-HT2A agonists can have various useful applications.
