4-HO-MALT (4-hydroxy-N-methyl-N-allyltryptamine) is a psychedelic compound of the tryptamine class. It is structurally related to psilocin, the active component in psilocybin mushrooms.

Chemical structure

4-HO-MALT is a tryptamine derivative, featuring a core indole structure with a hydroxy group at the 4-position and a methyl and allyl group attached to the nitrogen atom. This structure is similar to other psychedelic tryptamines such as 4-HO-DMT and 4-HO-MiPT.

Pharmacology

The pharmacological effects of 4-HO-MALT are not well-documented, but it is believed to act as a partial agonist at the 5-HT2A receptor, similar to other psychedelic tryptamines. This receptor is thought to play a significant role in the psychedelic effects of these compounds.

Effects

The subjective effects of 4-HO-MALT are reported to be similar to those of other psychedelic tryptamines, including altered perception, mood changes, and visual hallucinations. The intensity and duration of these effects can vary based on dosage and individual sensitivity.

Legal status

The legal status of 4-HO-MALT varies by country. In some jurisdictions, it may be considered a controlled substance due to its structural similarity to other regulated tryptamines.

Synthesis

The synthesis of 4-HO-MALT involves the alkylation of tryptamine with allyl bromide, followed by methylation and subsequent hydroxylation at the 4-position. This process requires advanced knowledge of organic chemistry and access to specialized laboratory equipment.
