Structure of yuremamine has changed

Migrated topic.

Hey everyone. I'm pretty new, but I'm grateful to be here in such an awesome community! šŸ˜

I noticed a change in the chemical structure of yuremamine on the Wikipedia page. It's quite a drastic change from the original proposed structure, and appears to be a catechin-like compound bound to DMT.

Just wanted to point this out, I'm not sure if it's already been discussed but I didn't find anything with the search function.

The structural 'change' is not so drastic. All the pieces are still there! We just have a C-O bond instead of a C-N bond.

Looks like this has been known for a good couple of years now.

Still, thanks for pointing out this interesting snippet :)

Sorry, I didn't know this. The Wikipedia page was just updated on December 14th with the new chemical structure.

:shock:
To me this seems like a pretty drastic change in structure... from this:

to this:

.

For example, there's no pyrolidinyl ring in the second structure. The second one is a flavonoid, and the former structure isn't. Can you elaborate on what you mean?

Certainly: I've rotated the new structure and placed it alongside the previous one to make the resemblance easier to discern. The carbon atom (labelled 'A') that was attached to the indolic nitrogen in the former structure is in fact attached to the oxygen atom (labelled 'B') to make up the pyran ring of the flavanoid portion of the revised structure.
