So if one was planning on making changa and has a decent amount of DMT N-Oxide from his first pull is it possible ot make changa with it? or would this not be such a great idea? Anyone have any experience with this?

Nah, the leaves do not have any more free carbon than the n-oxide itself. And even if they did, you cannot reduce n-oxide with carbon!DMTripper said:If you mix n-oxide with leaves maybe the carbon in the leaves absorbs the oxygen when they burn so you get purer N,N-DMT in your system. What do the chemists here say about that? I feel n-oxide works very well when mixed with mint leaves that shouldn't affect the experience. But it feels like it does.
It could be all sorts of things, from decomposition to oxidation to oxidation specifically on the amine (i.e. the one that makes the n-oxide), most likely a combination of these things.DMTripper said:I once had DMT that was not in an airtight container for over a year. It became very oily and then I was going to try and re-crystalize it but it didn't work. When I evaporated the solvent I was left with oily substance. I can only think that the DMT got oxidized. What else could have happen?

I love this type of debate! It's funny (almost scary) how people take simple observations or questionable assertions and spin them into facts after they've been repeated enough times. The N,N/N-oxide discussions are perfect examples.endlessness said:not to beat on this issue again but, even if it was yellow or goo, how do you guys know it is n-oxide in the first place? Yellow can be other impurities too that have no relation to n-oxide. Or, pure DMT can be an oil too, depending how it is (or isnt) crystallized. I think people are too quick to give names or to judge alkaloid content by the looks, which is obviously a very flawed way of judging.
I also wonder if people could tell n-oxide from pure dmt in a blind test.... I would guess not, but I would love if someone tested this.
. I'd be willing to give it a try because I'm very interested in the results and I'm sure I could scare up some white crystals to turn to n-oxide and some yellow oily goo for comparison.That sounds like the yellow goo I'm accustomed to, but there's some debate about whether the oily stuff is actually N-oxide or just N,N mixed with plant fats and oils. I'd love to know for sure!gratefulfloyd said:For me when I smoke the yellow goo it seems to be longer lasting yet not as intense, a lot smoother if you will but definitely not easy to try to breakthrough on... Does that sound like oxide?
