“…Of particular interest are N-2-methoxybenzyl-phenethylamines (NBOMe drugs), which are novel and reportedly very potent hallucinogens that have been increasingly used recreationally (Forrester, 2014;Hill et al, 2013;Ninnemann and Stuart, 2013;Rose et al, 2013;Walterscheid et al, 2014;Wood et al, 2015;Zuba, 2012), with additional potential use as radiotracers (Ettrup et al, 2011;Ettrup et al, 2010). Recreationally used NBOMe drugs include 25I-NBOMe, 25C-NBOMe, 25B-NBOMe, and 25D-MBOMe (Armenian and Gerona, 2014;Poklis et al, 2014;Rose et al, 2013), which are derivatives of 2,5-dimethoxy-4-substituted phenethylamines (2C drugs; Dean et al, 2013;Hill and Thomas, 2011;Shulgin and Shulgin, 1991). N-2-methoxybenzyl substitution enhances the potency of 2C drugs at serotonergic 5-hydroxytryptamine-2A (5-HT 2A ) receptors, resulting in exceptionally potent 5-HT 2A receptor agonists (Braden et al, 2006;Heim, 2004;Nichols et al, 2015) with strong hallucinogenic properties in animals and humans (Halberstadt and Geyer, 2014;Srisuma et al, 2015).…”
