Ethocybin also known as 4-phosphoryloxy-N,N-diethyltryptamine (4-PO-DET) or as CEY-19, is a psychedelic drug of the tryptamine and 4-hydroxytryptamine families related to the psilocybin-containing mushroom alkaloid psilocybin. It is assumed to act as a prodrug of 4-HO-DET (CZ-74) analogously to how psilocybin (4-PO-DMT) acts as a prodrug of psilocin (4-HO-DMT). The drug was first described in the literature by Albert Hofmann and colleagues at Sandoz by 1963.
