DET is a synthetic psychedelic of the tryptamine class, first synthesized by Stephen Szára in 1956. A close structural analog of DMT, it is distinguished by its oral activity, which results from increased resistance to monoamine oxidase metabolism. DET produces effects similar to DMT, including intense hallucinations and profound alterations in consciousness. It remains extremely uncommon with little history of human usage, and has no known natural sources.
