The primary subjective effect of any entactogen is a single key component which occurs in a varying levels of intensity across a broad range of substances.

Putative members of this class include [[2C-B]], [[2C-I]](at 2-14mg), [[MDMA]], [[3,4-Methylenedioxyamphetamine|MDA]], [[Methylenedioxyethylamphetamine|MDEA]], [[MBDB]] and [[6-APB]] among others. The [[chemical structure]] of many entactogens contains a [[substituted amphetamine]] core, and most belong to the [[phenethylamine]] class of psychoactive drugs, although several (AET and [[alpha-methyltryptamine|AMT]]) are [[tryptamine]]s. When referring to MDMA and its counterparts, the term '[[MDxx]]' is often used with the exception of [[MDPV]]. Entactogens are sometimes incorrectly referred to as major [[hallucinogens]] or [[stimulant]]s, which is untrue although their effects are often somewhat similar.{{citation needed|date=December 2013}} | Putative members of this class include [[2C-B]], [[2C-I]](at 2-14mg), [[MDMA]], [[3,4-Methylenedioxyamphetamine|MDA]], [[Methylenedioxyethylamphetamine|MDEA]], [[MBDB]] and [[6-APB]] among others.
