2C-T-15, also known as 4-cyclopropylthio-2,5-dimethoxyphenethylamine, is a psychedelic phenethylamine of the 2C family. [1] It was presumably first synthesized by Alexander Shulgin and reported in his book PiHKAL (Phenethylamines i Have Known And Loved) . [1]

Contents

Use and effects

The dose range of 2C-T-15 is typically 30 mg or more. Its duration is unspecified by Shulgin, and its entry in PiHKAL says it lasts for "several hours." [1] The effects are not prominent, and 2C-T-15 is not very potent.

Toxicity

The toxicity of 2C-T-15 is not well documented. 2C-T-15 is much less potent than 2C-T-7, but it may be expected that at very high doses it would display similar toxicity to that of other phenethylamines of the 2C-T family.[ citation needed ]

Interactions

Pharmacology

Pharmacodynamics

The mechanism that produces 2C-T-15's hallucinogenic and entheogenic effects has not been specifically established; however, it is most likely to result from action as a 5-HT2A serotonin receptor agonist in the brain, a mechanism of action shared by all of the hallucinogenic tryptamines and phenethylamines for which the mechanism of action is known.[ citation needed ]

Chemistry

2C-T-15 is the 2 carbon homologue of Aleph-15, which has not been synthesized. [1] The full chemical name is 2-[4-(2-cyclopropyl thio)-2,5-dimethoxy phenyl]ethanamine. [1] The drug has structural properties similar to 2C-T-2 and other drugs in the 2C-T series. [1]

History

2C-T-15 was first described in the scientific literature by Alexander Shulgin and colleagues in 1991. [2]

Society and culture

Canada

As of October 31, 2016, 2C-T-15 is a controlled substance (Schedule III) in Canada. [3]

United Kingdom

2C-T-15 is a class A drug in the UK under the Misuse of Drugs act.

United States

2C-T-15 is not explicitly illegal in the USA, but possession and sales of 2C-T-15 could be prosecuted under the Federal Analog Act because of its structural similarities to 2C-T-7.
