2C-T-2 is a psychedelic phenethylamine presumably first synthesized in 1981 by Alexander Shulgin, sometimes used as an entheogen. The drug has structural and pharmacodynamic properties similar to the drugs Mescaline, MDMA, and 2C-T-7.

Chemistry

Chemically 2C-T-2 is 4-ethylthio-2,5-dimethoxyphenethylamine, with the formula C12H19O2NS. The full chemical name is 2-[4-(ethylthio)-2,5-dimethoxyphenyl]ethanamine.

Dosage

In Shulgin's book PiHKAL (Phenethylamines I Have Known and Loved), the dosage range is listed as 12 to 25 mg. According to Erowid a threshold dose would be 5 mg, a light dose would range from 10-15 mg, a common dose is 16-32 mg and a strong dose would be considerd to be 32-48 mg.

Effects

Effects are similar to the related 2C-T-7, but 2C-T-2 is said to produce more of a "body-load" and other unpleasant reactions. However, there have been no reported deaths from 2C-T-2, unlike 2C-T-7, and the psychedelic effects have been much milder. Effects can last between six and eight hours.

Legality

2C-T-2 is unscheduled and uncontrolled in the United States, but possession and sales of 2C-T-2 will probably be prosecuted under the Federal Analog Act because of its structural similarities to 2C-T-7. In the wake of Operation Web Tryp in July 2004, the issue of possession and sales of 2C-T-2 and other similar chemicals will probably be resolved in the courtroom. There have been no reported deaths from 2C-T-2.
