> Out of interest, how does this work? In my ignorance, I'd have imagined a number of different chemicals with similar properties DMT that would also dissolve in the naptha.

Sure, that's right. The extraction step ... converting alkaloid salts to free base, mobilizing to nonpolar fracton... would indeed give you a mix of chemicals; DMT is not unique in its electrical properties in this regard.

The following step (crystallization) dramatically bumps up the purity of your sample.
