2C-G is a psychedelic phenethylamine of the 2C-series. First synthesized by Alexander Shulgin,[http://www.erowid.org/library/books_online/pihkal/pihkal027.shtml PiHKAL entry on 2C-G] it is sometimes used as an entheogen. It has structural and pharmacodynamic properties similar to 2C-D and Ganesha. Like many of the phenethylamines in PiHKAL, 2C-G and its homologs have only been taken by Shulgin and a small test group, making it difficult to ensure completeness when describing effects.

Chemistry

2C-G is 3,4-dimethyl-2,5-dimethoxyphenethylamine, with the formula {{chem|C|12|H|19|N|O|2}}.

Dosage and effects

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

Homologs

Several homologs of 2C-G were also synthesized by 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.

2C-G-N

|CAS: 207740-21-4

Dosage: 20–40 mg

Duration: 20–30 hours

Effects: Stimulation similar to that caused by amphetamines. General sense of unease or unfriendliness for most. 2C-G-N is sometimes called 2C-NPH due to the Naphthalene portion of the molecule.
