Abstract :
The solid-state structures of the hydrofumarate salts of two N,N-dialkyltryptamines, namely N-ethyl-N-propyltryptammonium (EPT) hydrofumarate {systematic name: [2-(1H-indol-3-yl)ethyl](methyl)propylazanium 3-carboxyprop-2-enoate}, C15H23N2+·C4H3O4−, and N-allyl-N-methyltryptammonium (MALT) hydrofumarate {systematic name: [2-(1H-indol-3-yl)ethyl](methyl)(prop-2-en-1-yl)azanium 3-carboxyprop-2-enoate}, C14H19N2+·C4H3O4−, are reported. Both compounds possess a protonated tryptammonium cation, and a hydrofumarate anion in the asymmetric unit. The ethyl group of the EPT cation is modeled as a two-component disorder with 50% occupancy for each component. In the extended structure, N—H⋯O and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds generate infinite two-dimensional networks parallel to the (001) plane for both compounds.
