CAS 19902-91-1: dihydromethysticin
Description:Dihydromethysticin is a naturally occurring compound primarily found in the plant species *Mitragyna speciosa*, commonly known as kratom. It belongs to the class of alkaloids and is structurally related to other compounds found in the same plant. Dihydromethysticin is characterized by its potential psychoactive properties, which may include analgesic and sedative effects. The compound interacts with various receptors in the brain, particularly opioid receptors, which contributes to its pharmacological profile. It is often studied for its potential therapeutic applications, although its safety and efficacy require further research. Dihydromethysticin is typically encountered in the form of a white to off-white powder and is soluble in organic solvents. As with many alkaloids, its use may be subject to regulatory scrutiny due to concerns about safety, dependency, and legal status in various jurisdictions. Overall, while dihydromethysticin shows promise in certain contexts, it is essential to approach its use with caution and awareness of the existing scientific literature.
