2C-G

Use and effects

In Alexander Shulgin's book PiHKAL (Phenethylamines I Have Known and Loved), the dose range is listed as 20 to 35mg orally. Effects are similar to the related Ganesha, and are extremely long lasting; the duration is 18 to 30hours. Visual effects are muted or absent, and it is described as an "insight-enhancer". Unlike other members of the 2C series, 2C-G is nearly as potent as its amphetamine form.

Homologues

Several homologues of 2C-G (2C-G-0) were also synthesized and/or tested by Alexander Shulgin. These include 2C-G-3, 2C-G-5, and 2C-G-N. Some, such as 2C-G-1, 2C-G-2, 2C-G-4, and 2C-G-6, are possible to synthesize in principle but impossible or extraordinarily difficult to do so in practice.

History
