4-AcO-DMT is a synthetic psychedelic of the tryptamine class, first synthesized by Albert Hofmann and Franz Troxler in 1963 during a chemical investigation into psilocin analogs. It is the acetylated form of psilocin and is widely believed to act as a prodrug for it, much like psilocybin. Its effects are frequently described as nearly indistinguishable from those of psilocybin mushrooms, though sometimes characterized as warmer or more euphoric. It has a limited history of human use.
