2C-C is a psychedelic drug first synthesized by Alexander Shulgin, sometimes used as an entheogen. The full name of the chemical is 4-chloro-2,5-dimethoxyphenethylamine. In his book PIHKAL (Phenethylamines I Have Known and Loved), Shulgin lists the dosage range as 20 to 40 mg. 2C-C is usually taken orally, but may also be insufflated. 2C-C is unscheduled and uncontrolled in the United States, but possession and sales of 2C-C could potentially be prosecuted under the Federal Analog Act because of 2C-C's close structural similarity to 2C-B.

Not much information is known about the toxicity of 2C-C. According to Shulgin, the psychoactive effects of 2C-C typically last 4-8 hours. Many users report that 2C-C is gentler and more sedating than other closely related psychedelic phenethylamines.

[edit] Effects

The visual effects of 2C-C are similar to those of LSD or psilocybin mushrooms. Nasal insufflation or rectal administration bypasses first pass metabolism, requiring about half the dose normally used orally; the effects occur within 2-30 minutes via these routes and tend to last about an hour less. There are very few negative side effects attributed to 2C-C when used infrequently and in appropriate doses.
