Chemistry:Aleph-6

From HandWiki

Aleph-6, or ALEPH-6, also known as 4-phenylthio-2,5-dimethoxyamphetamine, is a psychedelic drug of the phenethylamine, amphetamine, and DOx families.[1][2][3] It is one of the Aleph series of compounds.[1][2][3] In his book PiHKAL (Phenethylamines I Have Known and Loved), Alexander Shulgin lists Aleph-6's dose as greater than 40 mg orally and its duration as "probably long".[1][2][3] The effects of Aleph-6 have been reported to include "un-worldliness", among others.[1] It was reported to have synergized with LSD when taken in combination with it.[1] Overall however, Shulgin regarded Aleph-6 as a "disappointment" and that it may be a "forever threshold thing".[1] The chemical synthesis of Aleph-6 has been described.[1][2] The 2C analogue, 2C-T-6, has never been synthesized.[1] Aleph-6 was first described in the literature by Shulgin in PiHKAL in 1991.[1][2][3] It is a controlled substance in Canada under phenethylamine blanket-ban language.[4]
