O-Methylbufotenine (also known as 5-MeO-DMT) is a tryptamine alkaloid that is N,Ndimethyltryptamine substituted by a methoxy group at position 5. It has a role as a hallucinogen and a plant metabolite. It is a tryptamine alkaloid, an aromatic ether and a tertiary amino compound. It derives from a bufotenin. O-Methylbufotenine (also known as 5-MeO-DMT) was initially isolated from the bark of Dictyoloma incanescens D.C. It is a major active ingredient of South American Virola snuffs and ayahuasca beverage. 5-MeODMT also represents the active constituent of the venom of Colorado River Bufo alvarius toads, and it accounts for 15% of the dry weight of the toads’ parotoid and tibial glands. In addition, 5-MeO-DMT may be synthesized in human pineal and retina and has been identified in human body fluids including urine, blood, and cerebrospinal fluid. 5-MeO-DMT is regarded as an endogenous psychotoxin, and elevated concentrations of 5-MeO-DMT and its analogs in body fluids might be associated with psychotic disorders such as schizophrenic psychosis.
