From WikiMD's Food, Medicine & Wellness Encyclopedia

2C-T-13 is a psychedelic drug and phenethylamine of the 2C family. It was first synthesized by Alexander Shulgin and is used for its psychoactive effects.

History[edit | edit source]

2C-T-13 was first synthesized and tested for psychoactivity by Alexander Shulgin, who documented his findings in the book PiHKAL: A Chemical Love Story. Shulgin's work has been influential in the study of psychedelics and phenethylamines, and 2C-T-13 is one of many compounds he created.

Chemistry[edit | edit source]

2C-T-13 is a member of the 2C family of phenethylamines which are characterized by the inclusion of a methoxy group at the 4 position of the phenyl ring. The 'T' in 2C-T-13 stands for "thio" which refers to the inclusion of a sulfur atom in the molecule. The '13' refers to the number of atoms in the alkyl chain.

Pharmacology[edit | edit source]

Like other 2C drugs, 2C-T-13 is thought to act as a 5-HT2A receptor agonist. However, the role of these interactions and how they result in the psychedelic experience continues to remain an object of scientific elucidation.

Effects[edit | edit source]

The effects of 2C-T-13 are similar to other drugs in the 2C family, including hallucinations, altered thinking processes, and euphoria. However, the specific effects can vary greatly depending on the individual, dosage, and context in which the drug is used.

Legal Status[edit | edit source]

The legal status of 2C-T-13 varies by country. In the United States, it is not specifically listed as a controlled substance, but it may be considered an analog of other illegal 2C drugs under the Federal Analogue Act.
