α,N ,N ,O -Tetramethylserotonin (α,N ,N ,O -TeMS ), also known as5-methoxy-α,N ,N -trimethyltryptamine (5-MeO-α,N ,N -TMT ), is asynthetic compound of thetryptamine ,α-alkyltryptamine , and5-methoxytryptamine families.[ 1] [ 2] [ 3] It is the combinedderivative ofα-methyltryptamine (αMT) and5-methoxy-N ,N -dimethyltryptamine (5-MeO-DMT).[ 1] [ 2] [ 3]
α,N ,N ,O -TeMS was described byAlexander Shulgin in his bookTiHKAL (Tryptamines I Have Known and Loved ) as a putativepsychedelic drug .[ 1] However, Shulgin does not appear to have eversynthesized orassayed it.[ 1] As such, α,N ,N ,O -TeMS's effects,dose , andduration are all unknown.[ 1]
α,N ,N ,O -TeMS is theN ,N -dimethylated derivative of5-MeO-αMT (α,O -DMS) and theN -methylated derivative of5-MeO-α,N -DMT (α,N ,O -TMS).[ 1] [ 2] [ 3] 5-MeO-α,N -DMT is lesspotent and shorter in duration than 5-MeO-αMT, with 5-MeO-α,N -DMT having a dose range of 10 to 20 mg and a duration of 6 to 8 hours versus 5-MeO-αMT having a dose range of 2.5 to 4.5 mg and a duration of 12 to 18 hours.[ 1] [ 4] Similarly,α,N -DMT (α,N -dimethyltryptamine) is less potent than αMT, with doses of 50 to 100 mg for α,N -DMT and doses of 15 to 30 mg for αMT.[ 4] Hence, of potential relevance to α,N ,N ,O-TeMS, it appears thatN -methylation of α-alkyltryptamines may reduce their activity by several-fold.[ 1] [ 4]
Analogues of α,N ,N ,O -TeMS (N ,N -dimethyl-5-MeO-AMT) includeα-methyltryptamine (AMT),α,N -DMT (N -methyl-AMT),α,N ,N -TMT (N ,N -dimethyl-AMT),α-methylserotonin (5-HO-AMT),5-MeO-AMT (α,O -DMS), andα,N ,O -TMS (N -methyl-5-MeO-AMT), among others.[ 1] Another compound,zalsupindole ((R )-N ,N -dimethyl-5-MeO-isoAMT), is a closeisotryptamine analogue of α,N ,N ,O -TeMS.[ 5]
α,N ,N ,O -TeMS was first described in the literature, specifically inTiHKAL , by 1997.[ 1] It is known to have been made atEdgewood Arsenal , but the facility never published anything on the compound.[ 2] α,N ,N ,O -TeMS does not appear to have been otherwise described in the literature.[ 2] [ 3]

Here is a compound that has not been yet synthesized, but which carries the second N-methyl group (yet closer to DMT at the nitrogen atom and probably more potent) and yet a structural kiss of death (as to potency) in the MDA/MDMA world. Will it be up? Will it be down? I am afraid that the "make 'em and taste 'em" procedure is the only one that I can trust. ^a b c d e "N,N-Dimethyl-5-methoxy-alpha-methyltryptamine" .PubChem .
