'''3,5-Dimethoxy-4-ethoxyamphetamine''' (commonly known as '''3C-E''') is a synthetic [[psychoactive class::psychedelic]] compound of the [[chemical class::amphetamine|substituted amphetamine]] chemical class.
'''3,5-Dimethoxy-4-ethoxyamphetamine''' (commonly known as '''3C-E''' or '''3C-Escaline''') is a synthetic [[psychoactive class::psychedelic]] compound of the [[chemical class::Substituted amphetamines|amphetamine]] chemical class. Although it's name suggests it may be related to the [[2C-x]] family, this is not the case. 3C-E has the structure of [[escaline]], a mescaline analogue, with an additional carbon rendering it a substituted amphetamine.


Today, 3C-E is used as a [[recreational drug use|recreational drug]] and an [[entheogen]], probably non-existent on the streets and rarely found on grey area [[research chemical]] vendors.  
3C-E was presumably first synthesized by [[Alexander Shulgin]] and published in his book [[PiHKAL]] in 1991.<ref>{{Citation | title=Erowid Online Books : “PIHKAL” - #25 3C-E | url=https://erowid.org/library/books_online/pihkal/pihkal025.shtml}}</ref>


<!-- Many reports also suggest that this substance may be overly difficult to use safely for those who are not already very experienced with [[hallucinogens]]. Therefore it is highly advised to approach this substance with the proper amount of precaution and [[harm reduction practices]] if choosing to use it. -->
Today, 3C-E is used for [[recreational drug use|recreational]] and research purposes, and exclusively distributed as a gray area [[research chemical]] by online vendors. Very little is known about its effects besides its strong body high and weak visuals.  


==Chemistry==
==Chemistry==
3C-E or 3,5-Dimethoxy-4-ethoxyamphetamine, is a molecule of the [[substituted amphetamine]] class. Amphetamines are substituted phenethylamines containing a phenyl ring bound to an amino (NH<sub>2</sub>) group through an ethyl chain and a methyl group bound to the alpha carbon R<sub>α</sub>. 3C-E contains methoxy functional groups OCH<sub>3</sub> attached to carbons R<sub>3</sub> and R<sub>5</sub> and an ethoxy chain OCH<sub>2</sub>CH<sub>3</sub> attached to carbon R<sub>4</sub> of the phenyl ring. 3C-E is the amphetamine analogue of [[ecsaline]].

Although its name suggests it may be related to the 2C-x family, this is not the case. 3C-E is actually the 3-Carbon analog of escaline, thus the name.
Its pharmacology can provide strong interaction with 5-HT2A receptors, which could potentially help to prevent cluster headaches or give the compound the possibility to ease the psychological suffering associated with end-stage cancer.
3C-E's [[psychedelic]] effects are believed to come from its efficacy at the [[Serotonin#The 5-HT system|5-HT<sub>2A</sub> receptor]] as a [[Agonist#Agonists|partial agonist]]. However, the role of these interactions and how they result in the [[psychedelic]] experience continues to remain elusive.

The toxicity and long-term health effects of recreational 3C-E use do not seem to have been studied in any scientific context and the exact [[Toxicity::toxic dose is unknown]]. This is because 3C-E is a [[research chemical]] with very little history of human usage. Anecdotal evidence from people within the psychonaut community who have tried 3C-E suggests that there are no negative health effects attributed to simply trying the drug by itself at low to moderate doses and using it very sparingly (but nothing can be completely guaranteed). [https://www.google.com/ Independent research] should always be done to ensure that a combination of two or more substances is safe before consumption.

Tolerance to the effects of 3C-E are built [[Time to full tolerance::almost immediately after ingestion]]. After that, it takes about [[Time to half tolerance::3 days]] for the tolerance to be reduced to half and [[Time to zero tolerance::7 days]] to be back at baseline (in the absence of further consumption). 3C-E presents cross-tolerance with [[Cross-tolerance::all [[psychedelic]]s]], meaning that after the consumption of 3C-E all psychedelics will have a reduced effect.
