Here is Jeremy's recipe for Cane Toads
(see also Psychedelic Chemistry, p.45)

Mix blended toad secretion with excess methanol and allow to stand a few days. Filter. Evaporate methanol. Extract residue with dilute HCl.

Basify with NaOH or NH3.
Extract into organic solvent (eg dichloromethane). Evaporate to leave crude bufotenine.

Dissolve 4.1g bufotenin in 20 ml 1M NaOH and evaporate to dryness under N2. Dry in vacuum at 90C and dissolve in 50 ml dimethoxyethane. Add to 1.9 g acetyl-Cl in 50 ml in 50 ml dimethoxyethane and stir four hours at room temperature. Add to dilute NaHCO3 and CHCl3; shake and dry, evaporate in vacuum the CHCl3 layer to get 5-Acetoxy-dimethyltryptamine. This should be active at maybe 15 mg smoked, possibly orally as well. I can't remember off hand.

Hope someone tries this one day.

Jeremy's quote on smoking bufotenin, "I'ld rather smoke paint stripper".



heheh you'd have to be both motivated and desperate... i'll stick to a cooper's red
