2C-T-4, also known as 4-isopropylthio-2,5-dimethoxyphenethylamine, is a psychedelic drug of the phenethylamine and 2C families.[1][2] It is taken orally.[1]
2C-T-4 was first described in the scientific literature by Alexander Shulgin and colleagues in 1991.[3] Shortly after this, Shulgin described 2C-T-17 in greater detail in his 1991 book PiHKAL (Phenethylamines I Have Known and Loved).[1]
Use and effects
In his book PiHKAL (Phenethylamines I Have Known and Loved), Alexander Shulgin lists 2C-T-4’s dose as 8 to 20 mg orally and its duration as 12 to 18 hours.[1] Its onset is 30 minutes to 2 hours and peak effects occur after 3 hours.[1] The effects of 2C-T-4 have been described and include psychedelic visuals among others.[1] Shulgin devoted a chapter in the first part of PiHKAL to 2C-T-4, describing an intense “plus-four” experience on the Shulgin Rating Scale with a 12 mg dose.[1]
Interactions
2C drugs are metabolized by the monoamine oxidase (MAO) enzymes MAO-A and MAO-B.[4][5] Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) such as phenelzine, tranylcypromine, moclobemide, and selegiline may potentiate the effects of 2C drugs.[4][5][6] This may result in overdose and serious toxicity.[6][4]

2C-T-4 acts as a serotonin 5-HT2 receptor agonist, including of the serotonin 5-HT2A receptor.[9][8] The mechanism that produces 2C-T-4’s hallucinogenic effects has not been specifically established, however it is most likely to result from 5-HT2A receptor activation in the brain, a mechanism of action shared by all of the hallucinogenic tryptamines and phenethylamines for which the mechanism of action is known.
Chemistry
2C-T-4 is the 2-carbon homologue of Aleph-4.[1] The full chemical name is 2-[4-(isopropylthio)-2,5-dimethoxyphenyl]-ethanamine.[1] The drug has structural and pharmacodynamic properties similar to 2C-T-7 and 2C-T-19.[1] A notable analogue of 2C-T-4 is the Ψ-PEA compound Ψ-2C-T-4.[1]
Synthesis
The chemical synthesis of 2C-T-4 has been described.[1]
Analogues
Analogues of 2C-T-4 include 2C-T, 2C-T-2, 2C-T-7, and Aleph-4, among others.[1]
