3-Thioescaline (3-TE), also known as 3-methoxy-4-ethoxy-5-methylthiophenethylamine, is a psychedelic drug of the phenethylamine and scaline families related to mescaline.^[1][2][3][4] It is the analogue of escaline in which the methoxy group at the 3 position has been replaced with a methylthio group.^[1][2][3][4] The drug is one of two possible thioescaline (TE) positional isomers, the other being 4-thioescaline (4-TE).^[1][2][3][4]

In his book PiHKAL (Phenethylamines I Have Known and Loved) and other publications, Alexander Shulgin lists 3-thioescaline’s dose as 60 to 80 mg orally and its duration as 8 to 12 hours.^[1][2][3] The drug has approximately 5 or 6 times the potency of mescaline.^[2][3][4][1] The effects of 3-thioescaline have been reported to include closed-eye imagery and fantasy, sounds having a deeper pitch, introspection, enhanced appreciation of art and music, time dilation, body load, and sleep disturbances.^[1] It was said to be psychedelic rather than just intoxicating.^[1] The desired psychoactive effects were said to outweigh its physical side effects.^[1]

The chemical synthesis of 3-thioescaline has been described.^[1][4]

3-Thioescaline was first described in the scientific literature by Alexander Shulgin and Peyton Jacob III in 1984.^[4] Subsequently, it was described in greater detail by Shulgin in PiHKAL in 1991.^[1]
