2C-TFM is a
Chemistry
2C-TFM is a code that represents 4-tri
Dosage
A psychedelic dosage of 2C-TFM is reported to be 3–5
Effects
Very little data exists, but some reports suggest 2C-TFM produces psychedelic (hallucinogenic/entheogenic) effects that last between 5 and 7 hours. It is considered to be the strongest 2C variation.[2]
Legality
United States
2C-TFM is unscheduled and uncontrolled in the United States, but possession and sales of 2C-TFM could potentially be prosecuted under the
Canada
As of October 31st, 2016, 2C-TFM is a controlled substance (Schedule III) in Canada.[3]
Pharmacology
The mechanism that produces the hallucinogenic and entheogenic effects of 2C-TFM is most likely to result from action as a
Dangers
The toxicity of 2C-TFM is not known.
Synthesis
It is noted in The Shulgin Index Volume 1: Psychedelic Phenethylamines and Related Compounds where the synthesis is written "from 2C-I (with trifluoroacetic anhydride) to 1-(2,5-dimethoxy-4-iodophenyl)-2-(trifluoroacetamido)ethane; (with methyl chlorodifluoroacetate, KF, Cul) to 1-(2,5-dimethoxy-4-trifluoromethylphenyl)-2-(trifluoroacetamido)ethane; (with KOH) to 2C-TFM."[4] The synthesis was published by Nichols and his research team.[1] Since 2C-TFM is usually synthesised from 2C-I and the reaction does not generally consume all of the starting material, samples of 2C-TFM are likely to be contaminated with detectable traces of unreacted 2C-I, which may pose legal issues in jurisdictions where 2C-I is illegal, even though 2C-TFM itself may not be prohibited.
