25E-NB4OMe
A synthetic psychedelic compound
25E-NB4OMe is a synthetic psychedelic compound that belongs to the NBOMe class of drugs. It is a derivative of the phenethylamine 2C-E and is known for its potent hallucinogenic effects. This compound is part of a larger group of substances that are often used in psychedelic research and recreational settings.
Chemical Structure and Properties[edit | edit source]
25E-NB4OMe is chemically related to the 2C family of phenethylamines, specifically 2C-E. The NBOMe series is characterized by the addition of a 2-methoxybenzyl group to the nitrogen atom of the phenethylamine backbone. This modification significantly increases the compound's affinity for the 5-HT2A receptor, which is primarily responsible for its psychedelic effects.
The IUPAC name of 25E-NB4OMe is 2-(4-Ethoxy-3,5-dimethoxyphenyl)-N-(2-methoxybenzyl)ethanamine. Its molecular formula is C18H25NO4, and it has a molecular weight of 319.40 g/mol.
Pharmacology[edit | edit source]
25E-NB4OMe acts as a potent agonist at the 5-HT2A receptor, which is the primary target for classical psychedelics such as LSD and psilocybin. The activation of this receptor is thought to lead to the characteristic alterations in perception, mood, and cognition associated with psychedelic experiences.
The compound is typically active at very low doses, often in the microgram range, which makes it one of the more potent substances in the NBOMe series. The onset of effects can occur within 30 to 90 minutes after administration, with the peak effects lasting several hours.
Effects[edit | edit source]
The effects of 25E-NB4OMe are similar to those of other psychedelics, including visual and auditory hallucinations, altered sense of time, and changes in thought patterns. Users may experience enhanced sensory perception, emotional shifts, and a sense of interconnectedness with their surroundings.
However, due to its potency, 25E-NB4OMe can also produce adverse effects, such as anxiety, paranoia, and confusion. In some cases, it may lead to dangerous physiological responses, including hypertension and tachycardia.
Legal Status[edit | edit source]
As of the current date, 25E-NB4OMe is not specifically controlled under international drug treaties. However, its legal status may vary by country, and it may be subject to analogue laws that regulate substances with similar chemical structures and effects.
Research and Applications[edit | edit source]
Research on 25E-NB4OMe is limited, and it is primarily used in scientific studies to explore the effects of serotonin receptor agonists on the brain. Its use in recreational settings is discouraged due to the potential for adverse effects and the lack of comprehensive safety data.
