I found nothing spectacular from it on 50mg oral, so I've got about ~2g's of this stuff laying around. I did watch a sunset with my eyes closed, that's when intense fractal CEV's became apparent, but even that was a little bland. Seems like a 'tofu drug' that would go well with pretty much anything. I hear 2C-C is an example of a phenethylamine with similar qualities.
However, from reports, I hear smoking 5-MeO-DALT in any way or form produces much more profound effects. I've also heard its melting point was so low which would then make freebasing irrelevant. I've also heard from numerous sources it's as potent and active as DMT when vaporized, even smoked on a bowl on material in a bong! Is there anyway for freebasing or proper vaporizing of this substance? I'm pretty sure it's in HCl salt form. I was thinking of doing a simple acid-base extraction, but do you think the chemical itself will degrade or cleave its bonds? Do indoles attach to non-polar solvents? Back to my chem books.

EDIT:
- Bleh, I'm bored, so dissolved 100mg of 5-MeO-DALT HCl into 20mL of 10% w/v ammonium hydroxide solution. Stirring...
- It's actually dissolving quite well and turning foggy, but has some inconsistencies... probably needed more base solvent, but not enough room in vessel and am doing this in a rush. A mild temperature increase did the trick.
- Added a rough ratio of non-polar solvent now (light/med aliphatic petroleum naptha, washed several times before use), nearly filling vessel up to 25ml and inverting.
- White sludge precipitating in non-polar solvent layer. Gathered sludge which appears to be solvent-saturated crystals. Allowing to dry on tinfoil.
- Ended up with about 5mg of extra product than expected. Probably some leftover solvent in there meaning it's not completely dry, plus it has an unusual putty/oily consistency rather than a powder, though I don't smell any resides... Compound does not appear to have degraded either.
Will attempt to wash several times after solvent totally evaporates. Yield appears to be around pretty close to 100% assume I didn't pick up any nasty stuff. To be continued... I agree, I should have used NaOH as base and dH2O for a direct non-equilibrium reaction. I probably have a mix of HCl salt and freebase in there, unfortunately. I do not have easy access to DCM either. Let me finish my assay and we'll compare results.
