S-DMT, also known as 1-thia-DMT or as N,N-dimethyl-3-(2-aminoethyl)benzo[β]thiophene (N,N-dimethyl-3-AEBT), is a serotonin receptor modulator of the benzothiophene family related to the psychedelic tryptamine dimethyltryptamine (DMT).^[1]^[2] It is the analogue and bioisostere of DMT in which the nitrogen atom of the indole ring has been replaced with a sulfur atom, making the drug a benzothiophene rather than indole or tryptamine derivative.^[2] The drug shows about the same activity at the serotonin receptors in the rat fundus strip as DMT.^[1]^[2]^[3]^[4] These receptors may correspond to the serotonin 5-HT_2B receptor.^[5]^[6] It has not been assessed at the serotonin 5-HT_2A receptor.^[1] S-DMT was first described in the scientific literature by Richard Glennon and colleagues by 1979.^[1]^[2]

No modern studies have been carried out to assess affinity at 5-HT2A receptors.
