Methylpropyltryptamine (MPT), also known as N-methyl-N-propyltryptamine, is a psychedelic drug of the tryptamine family. It is a homologue of methylethyltryptamine (MET).[1]

Use and effects

[edit]

In his book TiHKAL (Tryptamines I Have Known and Loved), Alexander Shulgin described MPT's effects as being unknown and its dose as being greater than 50 mg orally.[1]

Chemistry

Detection

[edit]

An analytical method for MPT's detection has been reported.[2]

Crystal structure

[edit]

In 2019, Chadeayne et al. published the crystal structure of MPT.[3] The authors describe the structure as "...a single molecule in the asymmetric unit, with an indole group that demonstrates a mean deviation from planarity of 0.015 A°."

Analogues

[edit]

Analogues of MPT include 4-HO-MPT, 5-MeO-MPT, methylethyltryptamine (MET), ethylpropyltryptamine (EPT), ethylisopropyltryptamine (EiPT), and dipropyltryptamine (DPT), among others.[1]
