Premium AMT Powder – Laboratory Grade Research Chemical

biosynlab supplies pharmaceutical-grade AMT Powder (α-Methyltryptamine) for sophisticated scientific research and analytical applications. As a trusted vendor of alpha-alkylated tryptamines to laboratories across the USA, United Kingdom, and European Union, we deliver consistently pure, accurately measured compounds essential for reproducible experimental protocols and advanced neuropharmacological studies.

Chemical Composition & Structure

AMT (systematic name: α-Methyltryptamine, also known as alpha-methyl-1H-indole-3-ethanamine) is a synthetic indolealkylamine belonging to the tryptamine chemical family. Structurally distinct from N-alkylated tryptamines, AMT features an alpha-methyl substitution on the ethylamine side chain rather than N-substitution. The molecular formula C₁₁H₁₄N₂ yields a molecular weight of 174.24 g/mol.

Originally investigated under the code names IT-290 and Indopan in the 1960s, AMT has garnered significant research interest due to its unique pharmacological profile combining monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) properties with serotonin receptor activity. The alpha-methyl substitution confers metabolic stability distinct from unsubstituted tryptamines, making it valuable for pharmacokinetic and metabolic research.

Research Applications

biosynlab AMT Powder serves as standardized reference material for:

• Monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibition studies
• Serotonin receptor pharmacology (5-HT₂A, 5-HT₁A)
• Structure-activity relationship (SAR) research on alpha-alkylation
• Comparative studies with N-alkylated tryptamines
• Metabolism and pharmacokinetic research
• Analytical method development (HPLC, GC-MS, LC-MS/MS)
• Forensic toxicology reference standards
• Receptor binding affinity assays
• Cross-reactivity testing in immunoassays

Researchers utilize AMT alongside related alpha-alkylated tryptamines including 5-MeO-AMT, 4-AcO-AMT, and comparative studies with phenethylamine analogs such as amphetamine to explore structure-activity relationships between tryptamine and phenethylamine frameworks.
