2CT7-2-EtO, also known as 4-propylthio-2-ethoxy-5-methoxyphenethylamine, is a psychedelic drug of the phenethylamine, 2C, and TWEETIO families related to 2C-T-7. "One Tweetio related to 2C-T-7 has been made and evaluated. This is the 2-EtO-homologue of 2C-T-7, 2-ethoxy-5-methoxy-4-(n)-propylthiophenethyl-amine, or 2CT7-2ETO. The benzaldehyde (2-ethoxy-5-methoxy-4-(n-propylthio)benzaldehyde had a melting point of 69-71 °C, the nitrostyrene intermediate a melting point of 106-106.5 °C, and the final hydrochloride a melting point of 187-189 C. At the 20 milligram level, the effects were felt quickly, and the eyes-closed visuals were modest but real. It was very short-lived, with baseline recovery at about the fifth hour. The next day there was an uncomfortable headache which seemed on an intuitive level to be an after-effect of the compound." It is the derivative of 2C-T-7 in which the methoxy group at the 2 position has been replaced with an ethoxy group.
According to Alexander Shulgin in his book PiHKAL (Phenethylamines I Have Known and Loved) and other publications, 2CT7-2-EtO's dose is 20mg orally and its duration is about 5hours. It was said to have a "quick" or "fast" onset and to be very short-lived. The effects of 2CT7-2-EtO have been reported to include modest but real closed-eye visuals. In addition, it was said to cause an uncomfortable headache the next day that intuitively seemed to be an after-effect of the drug.
The chemical synthesis of 2CT7-2-EtO has been described.
2CT7-2-EtO was first described in the literature by Shulgin in PiHKAL in 1991. It was developed and tested by Darrell Lemaire, with publication via personal communication with Shulgin. The drug is a controlled substance in Canada under phenethylamine blanket-ban language.
