SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Tryptamine is a compound in which the chemical structure can be described as indole substituted at the three position with an 2-aminoethyl chain. Although tryptamine itself is not a controlled substance, its chemical structure constitutes the skeletal makeup of tryptamines listed in Schedule I of the CSA, which are classified as hallucinogenic substances. Tryptamine is sometimes substituted on the indole ring or the 2-aminoethyl chain or both with various substituents. Title 21 CFR 1308.11(d) lists specific substituted tryptamines in Schedule I. Also included in Schedule I are the salts, isomers, and salts of isomers of the listed tryptamines. The term isomer, as used in this section, means the optical, geometric, and positional isomers. Individuals have published detailed methods of synthesis for substituted tryptamines and have reported pharmacological effects based on user experiences. Law enforcement personnel encounter such tryptamines, but because they are substituted differently than those listed or described in the CSA, they are not subject to direct control in Schedule I. However, some of these substances can be treated as Schedule I controlled substance analogues if intended for human consumption (21 U.S.C. 802(32); § 813). DEA is soliciting information on (1) The commercial uses for tryptamines, (2) activities involving research and development, (3) tryptamines as intermediates or analytical standards, (4) import and domestic sources for tryptamines, and (5) any planned or anticipated uses for tryptamines. DEA invites interested persons to provide any information on the uses of tryptamines in industry, academia, research and development, or other applications. Both quantitative and qualitative information is sought. Although information is requested for all tryptamine substances regardless of substitutions, DEA is particularly interested in tryptamines that meet one E:\FR\FM\04AUN1.SGM 04AUN1 Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 150 / Friday, August 4, 2006 / Notices gechino on PROD1PC61 with NOTICES or more of the following conditions: (a) Has a secondary or tertiary amine formed by the substitution on the nitrogen atom of the 2-aminoethyl chain by various alkyl groups, whether in chain or ring form (for example, Nalkyltryptamine, N,N-dialkyltryptamine, N,N-tetramethylenetryptamine), (b) has an alkyl substitution on the alpha position of the 2-aminoethyl chain, and/ or (c) has substituents on the indole ring system, including, but not restricted to, various alkyl chains, halogens, hydroxyl, alkoxy, acetyl, or alkylthio groups, at one or more positions except the one (indole nitrogen) position.
