dimethyltryptamine polymorphism? (& colour) (chemistry question)

[nen888]

..yes, thankyou glorf, look forward to more of your contributions..

..ps glorf, i may be a bit of a 'voodoo-child', but it leads to rigorous science being done..hope to see more of you on the nexus...

..i bumped this thread as there was some recent discussion of plant-based vs synthetic DMT..and there are always questions about different forms of dmt, and the odd melting point query..

this thread discussion got continued into some interesting technical areas in:
Polymorphism 2nd attempt? in Advanced Chemistry..

& there was a bit of a debate with a few POVs on synthetic vs plant dmt in this thread Synthetic nn-dmt - Welcome discussion - Welcome to the DMT-Nexus..

..on a note, Fitzgerald and Simous (1965) isolated DMT from Acacia maidenii..after chromatographing it, as the Picrate they obtained both a yellow and red form with fractionally different melting points..re-x turned the red into the yellow..this suggests probable betacarbolines (or other compounds) in the red form..
