3.) 1H+13C NMR Spectra of Jungle Spice
Sample:
Spice pulled out of MHRB, NO defat, NO Recrystallization, Solvent: Toluene (not heated)
aka. this is what people believe to be the *full spectrum alkaloids jungle spice*. It is a viscous orange-brownish oil.
Here is the 1H-NMR of that sample.
Observation:
So in this picture we see the same Signals for DMT as in "2.) yellowish-white DMT". This means that – surprise – this sample is also very high in DMT. But now the big question would be: As we got *FULL SPECTRUM* now, how much of that Full Spectrum is DMT and how much is other stuff?
Well now ... I am very sorry to tell you (for at least this sample):
This *Full Spectrum* is *Full DMT* or at least it it so much DMT that I hardly believe, that even if that other signals belong to any component which COULD be psycho-active, it should not be noticed upon ingestion.
Signals of DMT = 81,25 %. Now one may say: Ok, but there is a lot which is not DMT itself. Yes, but as you will see in the following section "4.) impure Spice" this is likely to be mostly the same brown junk that contaminates uncrystallized Spice.
If we subtract the Signals that are definetly just Junk also present in that other Samples, then we have only 7,5 % of Signals which COULD be new. And even this is highly debatable as this sample is the most unpure of mine here, so even this may just be Junk which was not visible in any other samples, as it was not contained enough to show up.
So even if ALL other signals would only belong to 1 other compound and this would be also a psychoactive one, then 50 mg of that Jungle Spice would be 37,5 mg + of DMT and only 4 mg of that other Alkaloid at maximum (!). And those other signals labeled with X definetly don’t make up a Tryptamine-like compound when counting them together.
Now one may think: Well but if other Tryptamines are *hiding* within that DMT Signals, couldn’t this also be the case?
Well if then, it can be said that nearly all possible Tryptamines are N,N-Dimethyl-Tryptamines (no other Signals of Diethyl-, etc.) and the Ratio of the 2x CH2-Groups to the N,N-Dimethyl-Groups is nearly a perfect 2:2:6.
Then it could be that there are Tryptamines with a Substituted Ring (like MeO, AcO, ...). If then, that Substituent should have a shift on the aromatic signals at 6,91 – 7,55 ppm. But we do not see any trace aromatic signals, shifted to higher ppm scales (like it would be for MeO- etc.). Therefore (at least in a relevant amount) there is no other Tryptamine visible.
Here is the 13C-NMR of that sample:
Observation:
Not much to say here again. All big Signals are made by DMT, other signals are only visible in trace amounts. Again: if we would have another Tryptamine contained, then we would have for some Signals a only slightly shifted second Signal directly beneath. But when looking at the Signals, there is no tiny double Signal visible. Therefore I also think based on the 13C-NMR one can say that there is no other Tryptamine included in that Sample – at least at a relevant amount (!).
Conclusion:
As discussed above, the Sample contains nearly only DMT and the same Junk as other impure Samples. This is strange, because it is actually a brownish oil (!) and nowhere near a white crystal. But I have had multiple moments where only trace amounts of impurities make that whole sample getting oily and dark.
As I discussed it is nearly impossible that there is any other Tryptamine in a relevant amount contained. Now there are only that other signals left to contain a possible other psycho-active compound, but in this case again: the content of that other componend is way too low with 7 % and we even have to consider that it is not only 1 different contaminant, but a cocktail of other compounds.
Therefore MY CONCLUSION is that *Jungle Spice* is only DMT with all that reddish-brownish oils which we got when pulling with very hot Naphtha (very comparable to 4.) impure, crude DMT). You shall use Toluene for this and NOT recrystallize ... wow surprise! You just get DMT + mostly Junk :d So everything which is included there is only that brown crap which we otherwise try to get rid of when doing a recrystallization. In my eyes: *Jungle Spice* is only a myth and for me (at least) now tossed into the bin (at least judged by this sample).
