You might want to read an introductory chemistry textbook. Here's the amazon page for the newest edition of the chemistry book I used. While many people don't like textbook reading, it is often times better than trying to learn things from online resources as it presented in an organized fashion to help you develop conceptual understanding of the topics. You don't need to buy the books necessarily (although that will support the authors!), there are places online where you can find books, like popular bays.

After developing a good conceptual understanding of ordinary chemistry, you should try an organic chemistry book, which will help in understanding (semi)systematic names, like 4-HO-DMT (although "tryptamine" isn't a systematic name). Systematic names are used because there are basically a limitless number of carbon compounds (aka organic compounds) which can be synthesized, so naming them with a system of rules makes it easier to share with other chemists (or those who understand systematic naming).
