2C-T-15 or2,5-dimethoxy-4-(β-cyclopropylthio)phenethylamine is apsychedelicphenethylamine of the2C family. It was presumably first synthesized byAlexander Shulgin and reported in his bookPiHKAL (Phenethylamines i Have Known And Loved).
2C-T-15 is the2 carbonhomologue ofAleph-15, which has not been synthesized. The full chemical name is 2-[4-(2-cyclopropylthio)-2,5-dimethoxyphenyl]ethanamine. The drug hasstructural properties similar to2C-T-2 and other drugs in the2C-T series.
The dosage range of 2C-T-15 is typically 30mg or more. Its duration is unspecified byShulgin, and itsentry in PiHKAL says it lasts for "several hours."[1] The effects are not prominent, and 2C-T-15 is not very potent.
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 a5-HT2Aserotonin receptoragonist in the brain, a mechanism of action shared by all of the hallucinogenic tryptamines and phenethylamines for which the mechanism of action is known.
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.
2C-T-15 is not explicitly illegal in the USA, but possession and sales of 2C-T-15 could be prosecuted under theFederal Analog Act because of its structural similarities to2C-T-7.
2C-T-15 is a class A drug in the UK under theMisuse of Drugs act.
As of October 31, 2016, 2C-T-15 is a controlled substance (Schedule III) in Canada.[2]
