2C-G, or2C-G-0, also known as3,4-dimethyl-2,5-dimethoxyphenethylamine or as3-methyl-2C-D, is apsychedelicphenethylamine of the2C family.[1] Firstsynthesized byAlexander Shulgin, it has structural and pharmacodynamic properties similar to2C-D andGanesha (G).[1] The drug has a number of knownhomologues, which are known as the 2C-G series of compounds.[1]
InAlexander Shulgin's bookPiHKAL (Phenethylamines I Have Known and Loved), the dose range is listed as 20 to 35 mgorally.[1] Effects are similar to the relatedGanesha, and are extremely long lasting; theduration is 18 to 30 hours.[1]Visual effects are muted or absent, and it is described as an "insight-enhancer".[1] Unlike other members of the2C series, 2C-G is nearly as potent as itsamphetamine form.[1]
Thechemical synthesis of 2C-G has been described.[1]
Severalhomologues of 2C-G were also synthesized byAlexander Shulgin.[1] These include2C-G-3,2C-G-5, and2C-G-N.[1] Some, such as 2C-G-1, 2C-G-2,2C-G-4, and 2C-G-6, are possible to synthesize in principle but impossible or extraordinarily difficult to do so in practice.[1]

2C-G was first described in the literature byAlexander Shulgin in his 1991 bookPiHKAL (Phenethylamines I Have Known and Loved).[1]
As of October 31, 2016; 2C-G is a controlled substance (Schedule III) in Canada.[2]
2C-G and all other compounds featuring inPiHKAL areClass A drugs in theUnited Kingdom.
In the United States 2C-G is considered a Schedule Icontrolled substance as apositional isomer of2C-E andDOM.[3]
