4-Acetoxy-N,N-diisopropyltryptamine (also known as 4-AcO-DiPT, 4-Acetoxy-DiPT, Ipracetin, Iprocetyl and colloquially as "4-Ace"[1] or "Aces"[1]) is a lesser-known synthetic psychedelic substance of the tryptamine chemical class that produces a unique mixture of physically euphoric, stimulating, and atypically minimal visual and introspective psychedelic effects when administered.

It has been described in early online reports as being only vaguely similar to structurally-related tryptamine substances such as psilocin or 4-AcO-DMT but with the disinhibiting, physically euphoric and libidinous signature of psychedelics like 5-MeO-DiPT, and an atypically short duration of around 3 - 4 hours. It has since been reported to be slightly longer lasting and mildly less potent than 4-HO-DiPT (also known as Iprocin) with an active dose reported as between 15 and 40 mg.[2]

4-AcO-DiPT is primarily thought to act as a prodrug to 4-HO-DiPT, a substance which Alexander Shulgin comments on in his book TiHKAL. In it he writes that he "truly doubt(s) that there is another psychedelic drug, anywhere, that can match this one for speed, for intensity, for brevity, and sensitive to dose, at least one that is active orally."[3] Anecdotal reports dating from at least 1999 reveals that these properties are largely preserved with 4-AcO-DiPT, with the exception of a less rapid and potentially jarring onset, slightly extended duration and decreased physical side-effects from the excessive stimulation and restlessness that 4-HO-DiPT is commonly reported to produce, making it a more comfortable experience overall.[2]

Today, 4-AcO-DiPT is rarely able to be acquired on the consumer market and when it is, is almost exclusively distributed as a gray-area research chemical online for recreational and proclaimed entheogenic purposes. It is an example of the early wave of psychedelic research chemical that were explored following the wake of its initial synthesis and documentation in TiHKAL, before the emergence of an easily-accessible network of online research chemical vendors during the early 2000s.[citation needed]

Very little data exists about the pharmacological properties, metabolism, and toxicity of 4-AcO-DiPT. Users are advised to proceed with caution when choosing to use this substance.

Chemistry

4-Acetoxy-N,N-diisopropyltryptamine, or 4-AcO-DiPT, is a synthetic indole alkaloid molecule of the tryptamine chemical class. Tryptamines share a core structure comprised of a bicylic indole heterocycle attached at R3 to an amino group via an ethyl side chain. 4-AcO-DiPT is substituted at R4 of its indole heterocycle with an acetoxy (-AcO) functional group CH3COO−. It also contains two diisopropyl chains bound to the terminal amine RN of its base tryptamine backbone (i.e. DiPT).

Structurally, 4-AcO-DiPT is the the acetate ester analog of DiPT, N-substituted isopropyl homolog of 4-HO-DMT (Psilocin), and the N-substituted diisopropyl analog of 4-AcO-DMT.[4]

Pharmacology

Further information: Serotonergic psychedelic

Pharmacodynamics

4-AcO-DiPT likely acts as a 5-HT2A partial agonist. The primary psychedelic effects are believed to come from 4-AcO-DiPT's efficacy at the 5-HT2A receptors, although a number of other receptors may be involved as well. However, the role of these interactions and how they result in the psychedelic experience remains subject to ongoing scientific investigation.

Pharmacokinetics

4-AcO-DiPT is reported to produce effects that are almost identical to its de-acetylated counterpart (4-HO-DiPT), albeit with a slightly extended duration and slower ramp-up in its activity.[2] This is in a similar manner that substances like 4-AcO-DMT/4-HO-DMT, 4-AcO-MET/4-HO-MET, and 4-AcO-DET/4-HO-DET all seem to share the core pharmacokinetic relationship to their counterparts, suggesting that the 4-acetoxy tryptamine compounds are largely deacetylated into their respective 4-hydroxy homologs before exerting their main effects, though the degree and manner to which this occurs has yet to be scientifically validated..

Subjective effects

Disclaimer: The effects listed below cite the Subjective Effect Index (SEI), an open research literature based on anecdotal user reports and the personal analyses of PsychonautWiki contributors. As a result, they should be viewed with a healthy degree of skepticism.

It is also worth noting that these effects will not necessarily occur in a predictable or reliable manner, although higher doses are more liable to induce the full spectrum of effects. Likewise, adverse effects become increasingly likely with higher doses and may include addiction, severe injury, or death ☠.

Combinations

  • Cannabis - When used in conjunction with cannabis, both the visual and cognitive effects of 4-AcO-DiPT can be intensified and extended with extreme efficacy. This should be done with extreme caution, however, especially if one is not experienced with psychedelics. Many users typically report a dramatically intensified visual and "body high"; however, this can also amplify the anxiety, confusion and psychosis producing aspects of cannabis significantly, so extreme caution is advised when combining these two substances.
  • Alcohol - This interaction is not typically recommended due to alcohol’s diuretic and physically taxing effect which can negatively affect a trip if taken in high dosages. This combination is, however, considered to be reasonably safe in low doses and when used in moderate quantities, can often "take the edge off" a trip as well as dull its psychedelic effects in a fashion somewhat similar to benzodiazepines, albeit in a more physically draining way.
  • Benzodiazepines - When used in combination with benzodiazepines, benzodiazepines can, depending on the dosage, slightly to completely reduce the intensity of the cognitive, physical and visual effects of a psilocin trip. They are very efficient at stopping bad trips at the cost of amnesia and reduced trip intensity. Caution is advised when acquiring them for this purpose, however, due to the very high habit-forming and addiction potential that benzodiazepines possess.

Toxicity and harm potential

The toxicity and long-term health effects of recreational 4-AcO-DiPT use do not seem to have been studied in any scientific context and the exact toxic dose is unknown. This is because 4-AcO-DiPT is a research chemical with very little history of human usage. Anecdotal evidence from people within the psychonaut community who have tried 4-AcO-DiPT suggests that there are no negative health effects attributed to simply trying the drug by itself at low to moderate doses and using it very sparingly (although nothing can be completely guaranteed). Independent research should always be done to ensure that a combination of two or more substances is safe before consumption.

It is strongly recommended that one use harm reduction practices when using this drug.

Tolerance and addiction potential

4-AcO-DiPT is not known to be habit-forming and the desire to use it can actually decrease with repeated administration. As with most psychedelics, it is generally considered to have a built-in, self-regulating aspect. However, it should be noted that due to the distinctly hedonic effects this substance produces, it may possess a higher liability for frequent or excessive consumption relative to most psychedelics.

Tolerance to the effects of 4-AcO-DiPT is built almost immediately after ingestion. Afterward, it takes about 3 days for the tolerance to be reduced to half and 7 days to be back at baseline (in the absence of further consumption). 4-AcO-DiPT presents cross-tolerance with all psychedelics, meaning that after the consumption of 4-AcO-DiPT all psychedelics will have a reduced effect.

Dangerous interactions

Warning: Many psychoactive substances that are reasonably safe to use on their own can suddenly become dangerous and even life-threatening when combined with certain other substances. The following list provides some known dangerous interactions (although it is not guaranteed to include all of them).

Always conduct independent research (e.g. Google, DuckDuckGo, PubMed) to ensure that a combination of two or more substances is safe to consume. Some of the listed interactions have been sourced from TripSit.
