7-Methyl-ñ-ethyltryptamine (7-Me-ñET) is a tryptamine derivative related to ñ-ethyltryptamine (ñET). It was discovered by a team at Upjohn in the early 1960s. It has similar pharmacological effects to ñET, but is both 3-4 times more potent as a serotonin releasing agent, and 10 times more potent as a monoamine oxidase inhibitor, making it potentially hazardous as this pharmacological profile is shared with drugs such as PMA and 4-MTA, which are known to be dangerous in humans when used at high doses.
Analogues of 7-methyl-AET include ñ-ethyltryptamine (AET), 4-methyl-AET, 5-fluoro-AET, 5-chloro-AET, 7-chloro-AMT, and 7-methyl-DMT, among others.
