2,α-Dimethyltryptamine (2,α-DMT), also known as2-methyl-α-methyltryptamine (2-Me-αMT or2-Me-AMT), is atryptamine and a lesser-knownpsychedelic drug. It is the 2,α-dimethylanalog ofDMT and the 2-methylderivative ofα-methyltryptamine (αMT or AMT). Its synthesis was first reported in 1965.[1]Alexander Shulgin lists the dose as 300–500mg, and the duration as 7–10 hours in his bookTiHKAL (Tryptamines I Have Known and Loved).[2] 2,α-DMT causesmydriasis andparesthesia. It also produces a calm,drunk-like feeling. Very little data exists about the pharmacological properties, metabolism, and toxicity of 2,α-DMT.
