Buy 4-HO-NBnT (4-hydroxy-N-benzyltryptamine)
4-HO-NBnT, also known as 4-hydroxy-N-benzyltryptamine, is a serotonin receptor agonist and putative psychedelic drug of the tryptamine and 4-hydroxytryptamine families related to norpsilocin (4-HO-NMT).[1]
It is a non-selective serotonin receptor agonist, including of the serotonin 5-HT2A receptor.[1] The drug produces psychedelic-like effects in animals.[1]
4-HO-NBnT was first described in the scientific literature in 2024.[1]
Interactions
Pharmacology
Pharmacodynamics
4-HO-NBnT is a potent ligand of the serotonin 5-HT2A, 5-HT2B, and 5-HT2C receptors.[1] Of a series of nine N-monoalkyl-4-hydroxytryptamines, it was the most potent agonist of the serotonin 5-HT2A and 5-HT2B receptors.[1] In addition, it was second only to norpsilocin in terms of potency as an agonist of the serotonin 5-HT2C receptor.[1] 4-HO-NBnT acts as a high-efficacy partial agonist of the serotonin 5-HT2A receptor, as a very weak partial agonist or antagonist of the serotonin 5-HT2B receptor, and as a full agonist of the serotonin 5-HT2C receptor.[1] Its EC50Tooltip half-maximal effective concentration and EmaxTooltip maximal efficacy values were 2.9 nM (73%) at the serotonin 5-HT2A receptor, 4.9 nM (11%) at the serotonin 5-HT2B receptor, and 70.7 nM (91%) at the serotonin 5-HT2C receptor.[1]
In addition to the serotonin 5-HT2 receptors, 4-HO-NBnT shows affinity for and potent partial agonism of other serotonin receptors, including the serotonin 5-HT1B, 5-HT1D, 5-HT1E, and 5-HT7A receptors.[1] In contrast to norpsilocin and psilocin, 4-HO-NBnT was inactive as a serotonin 5-HT1A receptor agonist.[1] It also shows substantial affinity for sigma σ1 and σ2 receptors (Ki = 43.3 nM and 249 nM, respectively).[1]
4-HO-NBnT produces the head-twitch response, a behavioral proxy of psychedelic effects, in rodents.[1] Its potency in inducing the head-twitch response is about 10-fold lower than that of psilocin (4-HO-DMT), but is of about the same maximal efficacy in terms of frequency of head twitches.[1] The production of the head-twitch response with the drug is in contrast to norpsilocin, which does not cause this response even at very high doses.[1] 4-HO-NBnT also produces hypolocomotion and hypothermia in rodents.[1]
Chemistry
4-HO-NBnT, also known as 4-hydroxy-N-benzyltryptamine, is a substituted tryptamine and 4-hydroxytryptamine derivative.[1] It is the 4-hydroxy derivative of N-benzyltryptamine and is related to the naturally occurrence norpsilocin (4-HO-NMT).[1]
Properties
The calculated log P of 4-HO-NBnT is 2.93.[1] This is far higher than for instance norpsilocin (4-HO-NMT), which had a calculated log P of 0.90.[1]
