N-Benzyl-2C-B (25B-NB, NB-2C-B) is a recreational designer drug from the 25-NB subgroup of the substituted phenethylamine family, with psychedelic effects. It has a binding affinity (K i ) of 16 nM at the serotonin receptor 5-HT 2A and 90 nM at 5-HT 2C and reportedly has a potency in between that of 2C-B and NBOMe-2C-B .
Like other 2C-X-NBOMe molecules, 25I-NBOMe is a derivative of the 2C family of phenethylamines described by chemist Alexander Shulgin in his book PiHKAL. [ 17 ] [ 15 ] Specifically, 25I-NBOMe is an N -benzyl derivative of the phenethylamine molecule 2C-I , formed by adding a 2-methoxybenzyl (BnOMe) onto the nitrogen (N) of the phenethylamine ...
The 25-NB (25x-NBx) series, or NBOMe series, also known as the N-benzylphenethylamines, is a family of serotonergic psychedelics. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] They are substituted phenethylamines and were derived from the 2C family . [ 2 ]
25C-NBOMe is derived from the psychedelic phenethylamine 2C-C by substitution on the amine with a 2-methoxybenzyl group. 25C-NBOMe is a clumpy white powder with a notably bitter and metallic taste. 25C-NBOMe has been found on blotter mimics sold as LSD.
The N-benzyl derivative however was found to have higher binding affinity than 2C-B itself, with N-(4-bromobenzyl)-2CB binding even more tightly. [49] This initial research did not include functional assays of activity, but later led to the development of potent substituted N-benzyl derivatives such as 25B-NBOMe, [50] and 25B-NBOH.
The United States Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) maintains lists regarding the classification of illicit drugs (see DEA Schedules).It also maintains List I of chemicals and List II of chemicals, which contain chemicals that are used to manufacture the controlled substances/illicit drugs.
While the N-benzyl derivatives of 2C-I had significantly increased binding to 5HT 2A receptor fragments, compared to 2C-I, the N-benzyl derivatives of DOI were less active compared to DOI. [ 4 ] 25I-NBOH is notable as one of the most selective agonist ligands for the 5-HT 2A receptor with an EC 50 value of 0.074 nM with more than 400 times ...
Benzyl chloroformate is commonly used in organic synthesis for the introduction of the benzyloxycarbonyl (formerly called carboxybenzyl) protecting group for amines.The protecting group is abbreviated Cbz or Z (in honor of discoverer Zervas), hence the alternative shorthand designation for benzyl chloroformate as Cbz-Cl or Z-Cl.
