2C-B, also known as 4-bromo-2,5-dimethoxyphenethylamine or by names such as Nexus or Erox, is a psychedelic drug of the phenethylamine and 2C families.[2][3][14][15] It is a synthetic analogue of mescaline.[15][16][1] The drug is used as a recreational drug and is usually taken orally.[1] 2C-B produces hallucinogenic, mild stimulant, and mild entactogenic-like effects.[1][14][3][17][18][19][20] Its hallucinogenic effects at typical doses are milder than those of other psychedelics like LSD or psilocybin.[3][5][21][7][20]
The drug acts as a potent partial agonist of the serotonin 5-HT2 receptors, including of the serotonin 5-HT2A receptor.[22][23][24] It produces psychedelic-like effects in animals.[22] Numerous analogues and derivatives of 2C-B are known, such as DOB, 2C-B-FLY, and 25B-NBOMe among others.[1][25][26][27]
2C-B was developed by Alexander Shulgin in 1974[28][4][14] and was described by him in the scientific literature in 1975.[29][20] It was legitimately marketed under the brand name Erox as an over-the-counter sexual enhancer in some European countries in the 1980s and early 1990s.[30][15][5][31] The drug also emerged as a novel recreational designer drug and MDMA (ecstasy) substitute in the mid-1980s.[4][14][15][31] Subsequently, it became a controlled substance in the United States in the mid-1990s.[4][14][15] 2C-B was one of the first 2C psychedelics to be described.[4][14][20] It is the most popular and well-known of the 2C psychedelics and is one of the most widely used designer drugs.[14][15][21][18][6]
Use and effects
In his book PiHKAL (Phenethylamines I Have Known and Loved) and other publications, Alexander Shulgin lists 2C-B’s dose range as 12 to 24 mg orally and its duration as 4 to 8 hours.[1][32][33] However, in an earlier report, he described an effective dose range of 8 to 10 mg orally and a duration of 6 to 8 hours.[20][5] Threshold effects occur at a dose of 4 mg orally.[20][34] A wider recreational dose range of 2 to 55 mg or more orally has been described as well, with a typical dose estimate of about 20 mg.[35][36][2][5][18][7][6] A low dose has been said to be 5 to 15 mg, a moderate dose 10 to 25 mg, and a high or strong dose 20 to 50 mg.[2][11][3] Most people use doses of 20 mg or lower.[5] Shulgin and others describe 2C-B as having a steep dose–response curve, such that a small increase in dose can result in an unexpectedly large increase in effects.[1][21][34] Over the 12 to 24 mg dose range, every 2 mg increment can result in a profound increase or change in effects.[1] Higher doses are said to lead to more intense but not longer-lasting effects.[34] The drug’s onset is about 0.5 to 1.2 hours, with a range of 0.3 to 1.5 hours, and its time to peak effects is about 2.5 hours on average.[9][5][2][10] Effects on average last about 3.1 to 4.9 hours on average and are shorter than those of psilocybin.[9][5][11][7] In addition to oral administration, 2C-B may be insufflated less commonly, with doses being approximately one-third of those of the oral route or in the range of 10 to 30 mg and with this route producing more rapid and intense effects.[2][5][3][6]
The effects of 2C-B were reported by Shulgin to include sensory enhancement, brightened colors, visual richness, mental imagery, psychedelic visuals including kaleidoscopic and organic forms, sound distortion, increased appreciation of art and music, passivity, relaxation, emotional changes, euphoria, increased body awareness, tactile enhancement, feeling like waves of energy are flowing through oneself, feeling like one’s body is flooded with orgasms, and sexual enhancement.[1][20][37][38] He has succinctly described 2C-B as having “a luxury of sensory enhancement (visual, sexual, gustatory) with a minimum of introspective demands”.[39] The drug was one of his favorite psychedelics[38] and one of his “magical half-dozen” most important psychedelic phenethylamines.[1] At doses of 8 to 10 mg, 2C-B was described as consistently producing substantial sensory enhancement, but as not “superimposing hallucinogenesis” or as having “no hallucinogenic effects”, with the state being described as quite distinct from that usually associated with psychedelics.[20][5] It was also said to lack the lassitude that can be associated with psilocybin.[20]
In published reports by other authors, 2C-B has been claimed to produce effects including visual, auditory, and tactile perceptual changes, closed-eye imagery, LSD-like visuals such as colors and geometric shapes, time dilation, MDMA-like stimulant and entactogenic effects, such as being more in touch with emotions, as well as feelings of love, enhanced sociability, and empathy, feelings of peace and well-being, euphoria, a “body high”, increased sensitivity to touch, touch feeling pleasurable, and being erotic.[21][6][40][5] The presence of entactogenic effects with 2C-B is said to be unique among most psychedelics, along with certain other atypical psychedelics like 5-MeO-DiPT and 5-MeO-MiPT.[17][19][18][21] 2C-B’s effects are often described as being milder and more easily managed than other psychedelics.[21][6][5][3] For example, it is said to be less incapacitating or impairing, “non-ego-threatening”, not “mentally challenging” or confusing, not leading to an “extreme headspace”, and leaving the mind “very clear”.[21][5] In addition, it is said to produce changes in thought and time perception less frequently.[5] Due to its potential for relatively light effects, the drug has been referred to as the “Diet Coke of psychedelics” or as a “beginner psychedelic”.[21] Nonetheless, it has been described as quite visual, with the potential for all of the visuals of LSD but without the head space that LSD and psilocybin produce.[21] However, the visuals are dose-dependent, being mild at lower doses and being more substantial and LSD-like at higher doses.[21] 2C-B is often compared to a mixture of LSD and MDMA or a “candyflip“.[21][5] However, it is described as a “clear-headed candyflip”, with entactogenic-like effects, LSD-like effects such as visuals, but a very clear head space.[21] In addition, it is said to not have the same kind of forceful positive mood push that MDMA has, and to be a little more unpredictable and capable of causing bad trips or negative head spaces.[21] 2C-B is said to be more of a “party drug“, to be more recreational, and to have less likelihood of challenging, emotional-breakthrough, or mystical-type experiences, relative to psychedelics like psilocybin and LSD
