Mescaloxylic acid, also known as N-carboxymethylmescaline or as N-carboxymethyl-3,4,5-trimethoxyphenethylamine, is an alkaloid of the phenethylamine and scaline families related to the psychedelic drug mescaline. It is the N-carboxymethyl derivative of mescaline. The alkaloid has been reported to be a trace constituent of peyote (Lophophora williamsii), though findings appear conflicting. It was first described in the scientific literature by 1972.
