It is related in structure to the psychedelic tryptamine derivative 5-MeO-DiPT, but with the indole nitrogen replaced by oxygen, making 5-MeO-DiBF a benzofuran derivative. It is several times less potent as a serotonin agonist than 5-MeO-DiPT and with relatively more activity at 5-HT1A, but still shows strongest effects at the 5-HT2 family of receptors.{{cite journal | vauthors = Tomaszewski Z, Johnson MP, Huang X, Nichols DE | title = Benzofuran bioisosteres of hallucinogenic tryptamines | journal = Journal of Medicinal Chemistry | volume = 35 | issue = 11 | pages = 2061–4 | date = May 1992 | pmid = 1534585 | doi = 10.1021/jm00089a017 }}{{cite journal | vauthors = McKenna DJ, Repke DB, Lo L, Peroutka SJ | title = Differential interactions of indolealkylamines with 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor subtypes | journal = Neuropharmacology | volume = 29 | issue = 3 | pages = 193–8 | date = March 1990 | pmid = 2139186 | doi = 10.1016/0028-3908(90)90001-8 | s2cid = 24188017 | doi-access = free }}
Legal status
5-MeO-DiBF is not controlled under the 1971 Convention on Psychotropic Substances, so thus it has a legal grey area in many countries, but it's possible it could be illegal under so-called analogue acts if sold for human consumption.
