25E-NBOMe, also known as 2C-E-NBOMe or NBOMe-2C-E, is a derivative of the phenethylamine 2C-E. It acts in a similar manner to related compounds such as 25I-NBOMe, which are potent agonists at the 5-HT2A receptor.{{cite journal | vauthors = Hansen M, Phonekeo K, Paine JS, Leth-Petersen S, Begtrup M, Bräuner-Osborne H, Kristensen JL | title = Synthesis and structure-activity relationships of N-benzyl phenethylamines as 5-HT2A/2C agonists | journal = ACS Chemical Neuroscience | volume = 5 | issue = 3 | pages = 243–249 | date = March 2014 | pmid = 24397362 | pmc = 3963123 | doi = 10.1021/cn400216u }}{{cite thesis | vauthors = Hansen M | title = Design and Synthesis of Selective Serotonin Receptor Agonists for Positron Emission Tomography Imaging of the Brain. | degree = Ph.D. | publisher = University of Copenhagen | date = 2010-12-16 | doi = 10.13140/RG.2.2.33671.14245}} 25E-NBOMe has been sold as a drug and produces similar effects in humans to related compounds such as 25I-NBOMe and 25C-NBOMe.

Pharmacology

25E-NBOMe acts as an agonist of the serotonin 5-HT2 receptors.{{cite journal | vauthors = Gil-Martins E, Barbosa DJ, Borges F, Remião F, Silva R | title = Toxicodynamic insights of 2C and NBOMe drugs - Is there abuse potential? | journal = Toxicol Rep | volume = 14 | issue = | pages = 101890 | date = June 2025 | pmid = 39867514 | doi = 10.1016/j.toxrep.2025.101890 | url = | pmc = 11762925 | bibcode = 2025ToxR...1401890G }} In accordance with its psychedelic effects in humans, it produces the head-twitch response, a behavioral proxy of psychedelic effects, in rodents.

25E-NBOMe has shown reinforcing effects in rodents.{{cite journal | vauthors = Kim YJ, Kook WA, Ma SX, Lee BR, Ko YH, Kim SK, Lee Y, Lee JG, Lee S, Kim KM, Lee SY, Jang CG | title = The novel psychoactive substance 25E-NBOMe induces reward-related behaviors via dopamine D1 receptor signaling in male rodents | journal = Arch Pharm Res | volume = 47 | issue = 4 | pages = 360–376 | date = April 2024 | pmid = 38551761 | doi = 10.1007/s12272-024-01491-4 | url = }} This included conditioned place preference (CPP) and self-administration. The reinforcing effects of 25E-NBOMe were mediated by increased dopaminergic signaling in the nucleus accumbens. Blockade of the dopamine D1 receptor could attenuate the CPP induced by 25E-NBOMe.
