5-MeO-DiBF is a psychedelic{{Cite journal | vauthors = Casale JF, Hays PA | title = The Characterization of 2-(5-Methoxy-1-benzofuran-3-yl)-N,N-dimethylethanamine (5-MeO-BFE) and Differentiation from its N-Ethyl Analog | journal = Microgram Journal | volume = 9 | issue = 1 | pages = 39–45 | url = http://www.dea.gov/pr/microgram-journals/2012/mj9-1_39-45.pdf}} that has been sold online as a designer drug and was first definitively identified in December 2015 by a forensic laboratory in Slovenia.{{cite web | url = http://www.emcdda.europa.eu/system/files/publications/2880/TDAS16001ENN.pdf | publisher = European Monitoring Center for Drugs and Drug Addiction | title = Europol 2015 Annual Report on the implementation of Council Decision 2005/387/JHA }} It is thought to act as an agonist for the 5-HT1A and 5-HT2 family of serotonin receptors. It is related in structure to the psychedelic tryptamine derivative 5-MeO-DiPT, but with the indole nitrogen replaced by oxygen, making 5-MeO-DiBF a benzofuran derivative. It is several times less potent as a serotonin agonist than 5-MeO-DiPT and with relatively more activity at 5-HT1A, but still shows strongest effects at the 5-HT2 family of receptors.{{cite journal | vauthors = Tomaszewski Z, Johnson MP, Huang X, Nichols DE | title = Benzofuran bioisosteres of hallucinogenic tryptamines | journal = Journal of Medicinal Chemistry | volume = 35 | issue = 11 | pages = 2061–4 | date = May 1992 | pmid = 1534585 | doi = 10.1021/jm00089a017 }}{{cite journal | vauthors = McKenna DJ, Repke DB, Lo L, Peroutka SJ | title = Differential interactions of indolealkylamines with 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor subtypes | journal = Neuropharmacology | volume = 29 | issue = 3 | pages = 193–8 | date = March 1990 | pmid = 2139186 | doi = 10.1016/0028-3908(90)90001-8 | s2cid = 24188017 | doi-access = free }}

Legal status

5-MeO-DiBF is not controlled under the 1971 Convention on Psychotropic Substances, so thus it has a legal grey area in many countries, but it's possible it could be illegal under so-called analogue acts if sold for human consumption.
