5-MeO-NBpBrT (5-Methoxy-N-(4-bromobenzyl)tryptamine) is a drug which acts as an antagonist for the 5-HT_2A receptor,^[1] with a claimed 100x selectivity over the closely related 5-HT_2C receptor.^[2] While N-benzyl substitution of psychedelic phenethylamines often results in potent 5-HT_2A agonists, N-benzyl tryptamines show much lower efficacy and are either very weak partial agonists or antagonists at 5-HT_2A.^[3]^[4]
