2C-T-15

From WikiMD's Food, Medicine & Wellnesspedia

2C-T-15 is a psychedelic drug and phenethylamine of the 2C family. It was first synthesized and studied by the noted psychedelic chemist Alexander Shulgin.

History[edit | edit source]

2C-T-15 was first synthesized by Alexander Shulgin and documented in his book PiHKAL: A Chemical Love Story. The drug is part of the 2C family, which includes other psychedelic phenethylamines such as 2C-B, 2C-E, and 2C-I.

Chemistry[edit | edit source]

2C-T-15 is a phenethylamine with a chemical structure consisting of a phenyl ring bound to an amino (NH2) group through an ethyl chain. The 2C-T-15 molecule has two additional groups attached to the phenyl ring: a methoxy group (OCH3) at the 4 position, and a sulfur-containing thioether group at the 2 and 5 positions.

Pharmacology[edit | edit source]

Like other 2C drugs, 2C-T-15 is thought to act primarily as a 5-HT2A receptor agonist. The 5-HT2A receptor is a subtype of the 5-HT2 receptor that resides in the central and peripheral nervous system and is primarily responsible for the effects of psychedelic drugs.

Effects[edit | edit source]

The effects of 2C-T-15 are similar to other drugs in the 2C family and can include hallucinations, altered thinking processes, and intense emotions. 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-15 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.
