Chemistry:2CD-2-EtO
2CD-2-EtO, also known as 2-ethoxy-5-methoxy-4-methylphenethylamine, is a psychoactive drug of the phenethylamine, 2C, and TWEETIO families related to the psychedelic drug 2C-D.[1][2][3] It is the derivative of 2C-D in which the methoxy group at the 2 position has been replaced with an ethoxy group.[1][2][3]
According to Alexander Shulgin in his book PiHKAL (Phenethylamines I Have Known and Loved) and other publications, 2CD-2-EtO's dose is 60 mg orally and its duration is about 4 hours.[1][2][3] The effects of 2CD-2-EtO have been reported to include feelings of closeness and intimacy between couples without an appreciable state of intoxication.[1][2][3]
The chemical synthesis of 2CD-2-EtO has been described.[1]
2CD-2-EtO was first described in the literature by Shulgin in PiHKAL in 1991.[1] It was developed and tested by Darrell Lemaire, with publication via personal communication with Shulgin.[2][4][5][6][7] The drug is a controlled substance in Canada under phenethylamine blanket-ban language.[8]

The benzaldehyde (2-ethoxy-5-methoxy-4-tolualdehyde) had a melting point of 60.5–61 °C, the nitrostyrene intermediate a melting point of 110.5–111.5 °C, and the final hydrochloride a melting point of 207–208 °C. The hydrobromide salt had a melting point of 171–173 °C. At levels of 60 milligrams, there was the feeling of closeness between couples, without an appreciable state of intoxication. The duration was about 4 hours."
