Please post any information (with source if available) that is missing from the following list. This is a workthread with information gathered from several sources (forum, pubchem, tihkal, etc) and the idea is that this post will be edited as new information is pooled in, so we have a unified resource for important alkaloid related data. PLEASE HELP THIS THREAD GROW! Check back for updates!

this actually should be stickied with 5 stars, because this is the most important thread.

all other threads are worthless.

Great Idea for a thread. I noticed one mistake in the images: The harmaline hydrochloride image is incorrect. The proton belongs on the pyridine nitrogen not the pyrrole. The lone pair on the pyrrole is delocalized to the ring as it contributes to the aromaticity therefore pyrrole is a very weak base. The lone pair on pyridine does not and is able to covalently bound with protons ie. it is a decent base. All of the others look okay.

Just a quick question. Why is XLogP used, and not XLogP3? Does it make any difference? For example, DMT has a XLogP of 2.0 and XLogP3 of 2.5.

XLogP3 is a newer more accurate algorithm that has replaced the XLogP algorithm, but it’s not available for all compounds. XLogP values have been around for a long time, so you can easily find them for nearly every compound there is.
You may remember me as 69Ron. I was suspended years ago for selling bunk products under false pretenses. I try to sneak back from time to time under different names, but unfortunately, the moderators of the DMT-Nexus are infinitely smarter than I am.

DMT N-oxide: 2
5-MeO-DMT: 1.5
Bufotenine: 1.2
Psilocin: 2.1
Psilocybin: -1.6
Mescaline: 0.7
Ibogaine: 3.9
Harmaline: 1.2
Harmine: 3.6
Tetrahydroharmine: 1.9

...and some others

Harman: 3.6
Harmalol: 0.6
LSA (ergine): 1.6
Salvinorin A: 2.5
Voacangine: 3.5
Muscimol: -1.4

Ok so I removed the Harmaline HCl image. I had gotten it from pubchem. Do you have any link of a correctly drawn one?

There you go!


Thanks Evening, I added that data both for the alkaloids themselves and also added this full list to the end, arranged in the format like the other XlogP list, to easily compare the different XLogP3 's.

For now I also added LSA, Salvinorin A, Voacangine and Muscimol to our alkaloid list (though salvinorin is no alkaloid but I guess nobody will kill us for adding it's info there, right? Smile ), I also added Gramine at the end because its relevant, and Ive found that Merck Index says it is not soluble in pet ether (= naphtha, right?), so thats interesting for phalaris teks, apparently a napht/heptane recrystalization would get rid of it

I have just downloaded the Merck Index 13th edition (pm me for link if anyone's interested), so as soon as I learn it's functionality better I'll see if there's more info to update.

Any more info you guys have, whether its sourced info, molecule drawings, new alkaloid suggestions to add, your own solubility tests, double checking and mistake-correcting, its all very welcome!

BTW, I started adding some stability/degradation info (such as dmt's oxidation, or psilocybin's dephosphorylation in acidic solutions, etc). I think it would be interesting if we had more of this info and also what are the degradation products that are formed, so if anybody has this kind of info..

I also thought it could be very interesting to include some basic metabolic information (what enzymes metabolize them, what are the metabolites that are formed, etc), because this is relevant information for bioassaying, so for example if CYP enzymes metabolize a particular alkaloid, then (careful Very happy ) experimentation with CYP inhibitors could be done, and so on. What do you guys think?

Ideally this page should be added to the wiki but im a bit busy for it now, if anybody wants to do it, feel free. Otherwise I'll keep updating it here as we come up with more info and one day we add it all to the wiki. Another interesting thing would be to have a link under each alkaloid to a wiki page that shows a list of what plants contain the alkaloid, sort of like this but more organized specifically per alkaloid

Absolutely wonderful! I have to say it again: I love you! Embarrased

I will for sure contribute to that page in the wiki. By the way, I think the title should be "psychedelic compounds", not "psychedelic alkaloids", to be fair to salvinorin A (and elemicin and other allylbenzenes if they turn out to be true psychedelics in higher doses).

What about including compounds such as gramine and hordenine? Neither are psychedelics, but we do need all the information we can get on them, in regards to Phalaris spp. extraction. Hordenine is also of interest in regards to cacti extraction. So perhaps we should create a separate list of unwanted or otherwise not psychedelic compounds found in plants that do have psychedelic compounds?

Well I love you too Razz

I had added a note at the Salvinorin A subsection saying its not an alkaloid but I agree with you we should change the name to broaden the scope. Problem is, I dont know how to do that on the wiki after the page is created... I could only change it in the 'table of contents'.

As for the gramine, if you check it out I added it, on the 'relevant NOT psychedelic compounds'

Smile

Ill be glad to see this wiki grow and grow!

I had added a note at the Salvinorin A subsection saying its not an alkaloid but I agree with you we should change the name to broaden the scope. Problem is, I dont know how to do that on the wiki after the page is created... I could only change it in the 'table of contents'.

You can't as far as I know, you have to start a new page with the proper name. Edit: I've done this now.

As for the gramine, if you check it out I added it, on the 'relevant NOT psychedelic compounds'

Wonderful!

Yeah, me too! I will for sure add any information I find to that page. It's a lot better to share notes with the crowd here than to conserve them to oneself.

So I compiled the monographs of the main psychedelic and relevant compounds I could find in Merck Index, together with the most commonly used extraction chemicals, into a single word file (edit: pdf file now) for easy consultation too. Merck Index has some more information that wasnt added to this thread, so I thought some people might enjoy

Im attaching the file to this post. Here's what I found:
(I couldnt find 5-meo-dmt, salvinorin and neither naphtha/heptane/hexane in the merck index....)

Psychedelic Compounds
1.DMT
2.Bufotenine
3.Psilocybin
4.Psilocin
5.Mescaline
6.Ibogaine
7.Voacangine
8.LSA (ergine)
9.LSD
10.Muscimol
11.Ibotenic Acid
12.Asarones
13.Harmine
14.Harmaline
15.Harman

Other relevant compounds
1.Gramine
2.Hordenine

Extraction chemicals
1.Limonene
2.Xylene
3.Toluene
4.MEK
5.Acetone
6.IPA
7.Sodium carbonate
8.Sodium bicarbonate
9.Calcium Hydroxide
10.Sodium Hydroxide
11.Potassium Hydroxide
12.Fumaric acid
13.Citric acid
14.Hydrochloric Acid
15.Acetic Acid

If there is any other compound of interest someone knows its in Merck and I missed, tell me and Ill add it to the file

Where is elemicin? It's most definitely a classic psychedelic. It is a part of the nutmeg experience and has therefore been used for thousands of years. In nutmeg, myristicin is the main oil, but it doesn’t do much on its own, while elemicin is a very potent psychedelic on its own.

Myristicin is still questionable, until more tests are done, but elemicin can cause OEVs, CEVs, euphoria, stimulation, etc., and greatly boosts the effectiveness of mescaline. I think enough people have experienced this now to have it included in this list. It’s effectiveness is more consistent than bufotenine, and you have bufotenine listed.
You may remember me as 69Ron. I was suspended years ago for selling bunk products under false pretenses. I try to sneak back from time to time under different names, but unfortunately, the moderators of the DMT-Nexus are infinitely smarter than I am.

If you see me at the waterpark, please say hello. I'll be the delusional 50 something in the American flag Speedo, oiling up his monster guns while responding to imaginary requests for selfies from invisible teenage girls.

To be honest I havent read or heard, appart from you, of many people experiencing elemicin by itself and saying its psychedelic. But I take your word for it and added Elemicin, with all the info I could find. There's nothing on Merck Index on it, I found a few other sources appart from the basic pubchem info and im not sure they are very reliable, so if you can check that, or if you know other good sources. What about solubility experiments have you done any experiment that can shed a bit more light on it?


By the way, the beauty of the WIKI is that you can edit it yourself and add information, you dont depend on me for it... In any case, any more info, requests or feedback is always appreciated in this thread
