2,5-Dimethoxy-4-fluoroethylamphetamine
2,5-Dimethoxy-4-fluoroethylamphetamine (DOEF) is a psychedelic drug that belongs to the DOx family of compounds which are known for their high potency, long duration, and mixture of psychedelic and stimulant effects. DOEF was first synthesized and documented by Alexander Shulgin in his book PiHKAL.
Chemistry[edit | edit source]
DOEF is a member of the DOx family of compounds which are analogs of the parent compound DOM. The full chemical name of DOEF is 2,5-dimethoxy-4-fluoroethylamphetamine. The drug has structural properties similar to amphetamine and to other hallucinogenic amphetamines.
Pharmacology[edit | edit source]
The pharmacological mechanisms of DOEF are not fully understood. However, like other drugs in the DOx family, it is believed to act as a serotonin receptor agonist. This means it binds to and activates certain serotonin receptors in the brain, leading to its psychedelic effects.
Effects[edit | edit source]
The effects of DOEF are similar to other drugs in the DOx family and can include hallucinations, altered thinking processes, closed and open eye visuals, synesthesia, an altered sense of time, and spiritual experiences. The effects can last up to 12 hours or more.
Legality[edit | edit source]
The legality of DOEF varies from country to country. In the United States, it is classified as a Schedule I drug under the Controlled Substances Act. This means it is illegal to manufacture, buy, possess, or distribute without a license from the Drug Enforcement Administration.
