Source-derived summary

2C-T-30, also known as 2C-T-FB or as 4-(4-fluorobutylthio)-2,5-dimethoxyphenethylamine, is a serotonin receptor modulator of the phenethylamine and 2C families. It is the derivative of 2C-T in which the 4-methylthio group has been replaced with a 4-(4-fluorobutylthio) group. According to Daniel Trachsel, 2C-T-30 was not clearly active at a dose of 6 mg plus 3 mg orally and its duration and effects are unknown. However, it was said that it might have helped increase ability to concentrate on tasks. The drug is a potent partial agonist of the serotonin 5-HT2A receptor and also interacts with other serotonin receptors and targets. The chemical synthesis of 2C-T-30 has been described. 2C-T-30 was first described in the scientific literature by Trachsel in 2003. It is a controlled substance in Canada under phenethylamine blanket-ban language.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

“2C-T-30” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, 2C-T-30, pharmaceutical and compound provides the most credible route into that argument.

Evidence profile

Critical limits

A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
