Mescaline.

A substituted mescaline analogue, also known as a scaline and typically but not always a 4-substituted 3,5-dimethoxyphenethylamine, is an analogue of the phenethylamine serotonergic psychedelic mescaline (3,4,5-trimethoxyphenethylamine).[1][2][3][4][5][6][7]

Other related compounds include the 2C (4-substituted 2,5-dimethoxyphenethylamine) and DOx (4-substituted 2,5-dimethoxyamphetamine) compounds as well as 3,4,5-trimethoxyamphetamine (TMA) and other 4-substituted 3,5-dimethoxyamphetamines (3C drugs).[1][2][3][4] They are also mescaline analogues, but the 2C and DOx drugs have a third methoxy group in the 2 position instead of the 3 position while TMA is an amphetamine rather than a phenethylamine.[1][2][3][4]

The pharmacology of mescaline analogues has been studied.[8][9][10] Mescaline analogues, or 4-substituted 3,5-dimethoxyphenethylamines specifically, tend to be much less potent than the 2C and DOx drugs.[1][3][2] This relates to the fact that the 2,4,5-substitution pattern tends to be optimal in terms of receptor affinity and potency.[1][11] However, mescaline analogues are not infrequently much more potent than mescaline.[1][3]

Substituted mescaline analogues have been extensively characterized by Alexander Shulgin and described in his books such as PiHKAL (Phenethylamines I Have Known and Loved)[6] and The Shulgin Index, Volume One: Psychedelic Phenethylamines and Related Compounds[7] as well as in his literature reviews.[1][3][4][5] They have also been studied by David E. Nichols[12][13][14] and Daniel Trachsel,[15][8][10] among other researchers.
