Quaternary tryptammonium salts: N,N-dimethyl-N-n-propyl-tryptammonium (DMPT) iodide and N-allyl-N,N-di-methyl-tryptammonium (DMALT) iodide.

ABSTRACT: The solid-state structures of two quaternary trytpammonium salts, namely, N,N-dimethyl-N-n-propyl-tryptammonium (DMPT) iodide [systematic name: 2-(1H-indol-3-yl)-N,N-dimethyl-N-propyl-aza-nium iodide], C₁₅H₂₃N₂ ⁺·I^-, and N-allyl-N,N-di-methyl-tryptammonium (DMALT) iodide, [systematic name: 2-(1H-indol-3-yl)-N,N-dimethyl-N-(prop-2-en-1-yl)aza-nium iodide], C₁₅H₂₁N₂ ⁺·I^-, are reported. Both salts possess a tri-alkyl-tryptammonium cation and an iodide anion in the asymmetric unit, which are joined together through N-H⋯I inter-actions. The DMALT structure was refined as an inversion
