Application

5-Methyltryptamine hydrochloride was used to study the mechanism of metabolism of 9-methyl 1,2,3,4,6,7,12,12b-octahydroindolo[2,3-a]quinolizine in rats. It was used as internal standard in the determination of urinary metabolites of 5-methoxy-N,N-diisopropyltryptamine in humans. It was used as reactant in:
  • synthesis of kinesin spindle protein (KSP) inhibitors
  • intramolecular furan Diels-Alder reactions
  • Pictet-Spengler-like reactions
  • reactant in synthesis of kinesin spindle protein (KSP) inhibitors
  • reactant in intramolecular furan Diels-Alder reactions
  • reactant in Pictet-Spengler-like reactions

The metabolic fate of 9-methyl 1,2,3,4,6,7,12,12b-octahydroindolo[2,3-a]quinolizine (MIQ), a compound with promising pharmacological action on the CNS system, was investigated in the rat after an oral dose of 200 mg/kg, the maximal tolerated dose. Urine and feces were collected, exhaustively extracted

The urinary metabolites of 5-methoxy-N,N-diisopropyltryptamine (5-MeO-DIPT) in humans have been investigated by analyzing urine specimens from its users. For the unequivocal identification and accurate quantification of its major metabolites, careful analyses were conducted by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry, liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry

Stimulation of phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PLC) by muscarinic cholinergic and serotoninergic agonists was measured in rat brain cortical membranes by using exogenously supplied substrates. Serotonin, tryptamine, 5-fluorotryptamine and 5-methyltryptamine stimulated PLC with EC50 values of 1.7, 11.2, 15.0, and 29.4
