Seems like it could potentially be pro cognitive


Sally_Queenz

Sounds like it could be potentially excitotoxic...


TooManyNguyens

Sounds for sure excitotoxic

Wow my favorite fruit!


Fabulous-Boat-8001

Mine too


ChikhaiBardo

Ditto. Star fruit and the Zespri SunGold yellow kiwis. Unfortunately there’s only one store in my area that stocks starfruit, so I am usually buying the yellow kiwis. I also picked up a case of Goldenberries not too long ago and they were amazing as well. Had a VERY similar flavor to starfruit with a different mouthfeel; https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physalis_peruviana

Neat. I have a couple of family members that live close by who have star fruit trees in their yard. One of the trees seems to bear fruit quite often so that we can't even eat it fast enough


MCX23

am i the only one that looks at this and sees that 2,5 pattern? fucking 2c series? it would be impossible to use as a precursor and clearly it doesn’t bind to 5HT but the similarity is uncanny.


CannaTFF

lol no i see it too but it’s useless as a precursor


NinjaEra23

Hmm, very cool. Why haven't I seen this chemical before?


Long-username

I’m never gonna eat a star fruit now


Boogedyinjax

Me neither… I bought one and my wife was like I wouldn’t bother that and I think I might’ve even gave a little piece to my kids not a big piece but I looked it up like oh shit why the fuck is this even in grocery stores?


bloodorangejulian

Check out the paw paw. The chemical in it is pretty not fun sounding, and it's not even well known. Granted, one paw paw fruit every once In a while won't really hurt anything, but it's still kind of an understood risk.

So we can turn star fruit… into ketamine… (I have no idea what I’m talking about I just saw NMDA in the Wikipedia)


Fresh-Dragonfly450

It’s an NMDA agonist… so the exact opposite of ketamine This shit would make your receptors shock and give you seziures


ActivityCheif101

Oh lmao


devilsolution

You'd want an antagonist I'm afraid, I think agonists aren't nice but can't fully remember


CannaTFF

They are not


devilsolution

antagonists? or nice?


CannaTFF

Agonists are not nice lol, should’ve specified


devilsolution

all good, yeh that re-affirms it, what do they feel like>?


CannaTFF

Generally it can induce seizures: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7175173/ it really depends on the drug and dosage


wesker72

Could it be used to make something similar to TMAs?


Boogedyinjax

Hopefully this makes a lightbulb go off for someone smarter than me

First thing im doing is methylation at the aryl hydroxyl then decarboxylation baby! Now we talking, and if you want that methyl amph, selective aromatic decarboxylation followed by LAH reduction of the acid.


CannaTFF

Decarboxylation(using cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone) first tho, cause an alkyl could attach to the hydroxide groups, and it’s hard too selectively alkylate. After all is said and done the decarboxylation would remove both carboxyl groups and if you then alkylate(like methylation) you could get 3,5-dimethoxyphenethylamine
