Overview

DMT is the common catalog name for N,N-dimethyltryptamine, a tryptamine-class indole alkaloid used as a research and analytical reference material. It is associated with CAS 61-50-7 and has molecular formula C12H16N2 with an approximate molecular weight of 188.27 g/mol. In laboratory contexts, it is handled strictly as a reference standard for identity confirmation, chromatographic method development, and forensic/toxicology analysis.acs+4

Chemical & Physical Properties

DMT is commonly encountered as a crystalline solid or clear/white crystals. For analytical workflows, polar organic solvents are typically preferred for stock preparation; low aqueous solubility should be considered when designing LC-MS or GC-MS methods.pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih+1

Primary Research Applications

DMT is used as an analytical reference standard in forensic toxicology, analytical chemistry, and neuropharmacology research. Typical applications include LC-MS/MS and GC-MS calibration, retention-time confirmation, impurity profiling, and method validation in controlled laboratory settings. It may also be used in receptor-binding or metabolite profiling studies where a characterized tryptamine standard is required. All work should remain strictly research-oriented and not involve human or veterinary use.webbook.nist+2

Storage & Stability

Store DMT in a tightly sealed container to limit moisture uptake and loss during repeated handling. Refrigerated, dark storage is generally preferred for long-term stability of reference-standard material. Maintain QA documentation, lot tracking, and chain-of-custody controls for forensic or regulated analytical use.webbook.nist+1
