Ethocybin also known as 4-phosphoryloxy-N,N-diethyltryptamine (4-PO-DET) or as CEY-19, is a psychedelic drug of the tryptamine and 4-hydroxytryptamine families related to the psilocybin-containing mushroom alkaloid psilocybin.[1] It is assumed to act as a prodrug of 4-HO-DET (CZ-74) analogously to how psilocybin (4-PO-DMT) acts as a prodrug of psilocin (4-HO-DMT).[1][6] The drug was first described in the literature by Albert Hofmann and colleagues at Sandoz by 1963.[7][8]

Use and effects

[edit]

Interactions

[edit]

Pharmacology

[edit]

Ethocybin may be dephosphorylated in vivo to 4-HO-DET (ethocin), analogously to how psilocybin (4-PO-DMT) is metabolized to psilocin (4-HO-DMT).[9] This chemical reaction takes place under strongly acidic conditions or enzymatically by phosphatases in the body. 4-HO-DET acts as a partial agonist of the serotonin 5-HT2A receptor.[10][11]

Chemistry

Analogues

[edit]

Analogues of ethocybin include 4-HO-DET (ethocin), 4-AcO-DET (ethacetin), psilocybin (4-PO-DMT), psilocin (4-HO-DMT), baeocystin (4-PO-NMT), and aeruginascin (4-PO-TMT), among others.

History

[edit]

Albert Hofmann and colleagues working at Sandoz were the first to synthesize and describe ethocybin (CEY-19) along with 4-HO-DET (CZ-74), which shortly followed his discovery of psilocin and psilocybin.[7][8] They first described the drug in a patent by 1963.[7][8] Along with 4-HO-DET, ethocybin was one of the earliest structurally modified or synthetic psychedelic tryptamines to be developed.[2][5]

Society and culture

[edit]

United States

[edit]

Ethocybin is not controlled in the United States, but possession or sale may be considered illegal under the Federal Analog Act.[citation needed]

Research

[edit]

Ethocybin, under the code name CEY-19 and along with 4-HO-DET (CZ-74), has been studied in psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy.[4][1][8]
