'''2C-D''' ('''2,5-dimethoxy-4-methylphenethylamine''') is a synthetically produced [[psychoactive]] drug usually sold by online research chemical vendors. The substance itself is classed as a psychedelic [[Phenethylamines|phenethylamine]] of the [[2C-x]] family and was first synthesized in 1970 by a team from the Texas Research Institute of Mental Sciences[1].

It was described and investigated by humans in Shulgin’s 1991 book [[PiHKAL]]: A Chemical Love Story. In his book, Shulgin lists the dosage range as being from 20 to 60 mg with many people recommending higher doses. The drug is used recreationally for its [[psychedelic]] and [[entactogenic]] effects. ~~2C-D has been explored~~ as a ~~potential [[nootropic]] in doses between 1-10mg~~. 2C-D is generally taken orally, though it may be insufflated. Insufflating tends to cause intense pain, however, and the dosage level is usually much lower.

Shulgin himself referred to this substance as a “pharmacological tofu,” meaning that when mixed with other substances, it can extend or potentiate their effects without coloring the experience too much. 2C-D is generally taken orally, though it may be insufflated. Insufflating tends to cause intense pain, however, and the dosage level is usually much lower. Lower doses (generally 10 mg or less) of 2C-D have been explored as a potential nootropic, albeit with mixed results.
