A compound of Formula I, which possesses 5-HT2A and/or 5-HT2c selective receptor activity, but lacks at least some of the undesirable characteristics of 5-HT2B-agonist related activities, is disclosed. Methods of preparing said compo

An SAR study of psilocybin and psilocin derivatives reveals that 1-methylpsilocin is a selective agonist at the h5-HT2C receptor. The corresponding phosphate derivative, 1-methylpsilocybin, shows efficacy in an animal model for obsessive-compul

An improved procedure to accomplish the O-phosphorylation of 4-hydroxy- N,N-dimethyltryptamine (psilocin 5) is reported that utilizes reaction between the O-lithium salt of 5 and tetra-O-benzylpyrophosphate. The O- benzyl groups were removed by catalytic hydrogenation over palladium on carbon to afford N,N-dimethyl-4-phosphoryloxytryptamine (psilocybin, 1). In view of difficulties encountered in the preparation of 1, it is suggested that 4-acetoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine (2) may be a useful alternative for pharmacological studies. The latter was obtained following catalytic O- debenzylation of 4-benzyloxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine in the presence of acetic anhydride and sodium acetate.
