3C-P, also known as 4-propoxy-3,5-dimethoxyamphetamine, is a psychedelic phenethylamine. It has structural and pharmacodynamic properties similar to the drugs mescaline, proscaline, and amphetamine. Little information exists on the human pharmacology of 3C-P, but a psychedelic dosage appears to be 20–40 mg,[1] and is accompanied by stimulant and psychedelic effects such as visual enhancement and distortion.[medical citation needed] It can be synthesized from syringaldehyde by reaction with n-propyl iodide followed by condensation with nitroethane and reduction.[2] 3C-P acts as a serotonin 5-HT2 receptor agonist.[3]
