How to identify an unknown compound

I received some 2c-b from a friend but based on the few times I've done 2c-b before and the effects/dosage of this stuff I'm convinced its something different. I know "what did i take" threads are not allowed but I'm wondering if anyone can suggest I way I could go about learning more about the compound. I have a friend who MAY be able to run chemical tests on it but its not so likely that he will be able to. If anyone would like more information please ask, I'd be happy to share :)

Thanks
 
Welcome to Bluelight!

In what way is this not a 'what did I take?' thread? :)

On one hand I am tempted to ask: what exactly made you think it was something else? How was it different than other 2C-B trips? How long did the trip last? How much did you take, how much did you take before, was it taken as pure powder? Etc.

On the other hand we just don't allow this.
You can try to explain what you mean by suggestions how to go about learning about 'the compound' (which one, the unidentified one you took or 2C-B?)... but chances are this will have to be closed.

People posting in here might have their posts unapproved.
 
Why does anybody even bother asking questions on this sight anymore? The only rule for asking questions is , IT can't be a question
 
While this thread is still open, I post my suggestion of buying test kit: http://eztest.com/ . There is great thread with results for different chemicals check the results. Reagent testing can't determine the chemical with 100% reliability, but at least it can give you the idea of what is the chemical.
 
Thanks! I thought it'd be different because I'm just asking if anyone can suggest somewhere where I could ask this kind of question and have knowledgeable people answer.

I've eaten 15mg and 30 mg on separate occasions and with 15 I barely felt anything and with 30 I felt a little something but it only lasted maybe an hour. With 15mg my girlfriend also felt very very minimal effects. I spoke with the guy I got it from and he told me that it only works if you snort it and that a good dose to snort is around 10-15mg but that 20mg is on the high side and that it should last for 3-4 hours. I snorted 11mg the other day and I was feeling nice for about 2.5 hours. I had minor OEVs and my body felt pretty good. I had some energy but I was still able to sleep easily about 5 hours after I took it. I know the description of effects could describe many different compounds but I was hoping that the dosage and duration might help to at least narrow down the search. I think it's good overall but I'm worried about taking something that I dont know what it is. also, if anyone can just make a suggestion I want to do more research and figure it out but I just dont know where to start.

Hopefully this thread will stay open for long enough for me to get a few ideas. I just want to be as safe as possible. Thanks
 
@jigsaw - like I am saying below here: Marquis reagent is a type you can use and it is probably identical or similar to EZ test. Good idea by allium indeed. Other than that you can get things tested in the Netherlands or Spain (Energy Control), and MAPS may also do it for a hefty fee.
Other than this we cannot help you.

@rouss Scoff at it all you want, still we cannot pretend that we as a community can tell you what drug your unidentified blotter or powder is. What we can do is suggest ways to get actual info or suggested info on it for instance by using something like a Marquis reagent or other color indicator agent. Is that what you were asking about?

Yes we have a set of rules and we follow them. Other than that feel free to ask your questions. But we can't help it if you want to get something from BL that is not in the best interest of Harm Reduction.

Suppose we would allow people to suggest to others that what they have is indeed magic mushrooms, but actually they are poisonous. That would give a person a false sense of security, which is WORSE than not getting a conclusive evidence about your unidentified drug.

As long as you don't have enough ID information about it, you shouldn't take it and if you cannot get methods to identify for yourself you may even want to throw it away. Yes! That's better than taking something without knowing exactly what it is, unless you like russian roulette a whole lot. Sorry that we cannot reach through our screens and help you more adequately but you cannot expect to have PD/BL fix your issue magically.

On the shroomery there are experienced mycologists who, in the case of mushrooms, might be trusted to ID by photograph.
 
I would suggest you to read threads on 5-MeO-T's, and especially 5-MeO-DMT.

And getting testing kit is the best thing you can do.

I hope my post didn't break any rules.
 
The problem is: there is no way to be conclusive using that info, although the fact that you have to snort it is interesting.

5-MeO-DMT is more potent though, 15-20 mg would be quite intense... Also it doesn't last nearly that long.
5-MeO-DiPT on the other hand, that might be a possibility though it should have been active enough at 15 mg orally.

It depends on how many other psychedelics you have tried, at least to be able to make the distinction between a tryptamine
and a 2C-X / phenethylamine. If you can't even say that you have a good reason to believe it is either of those classes then
too many compounds will fit the description and well that's that.

This thread is still an inch away from being closed, I'm not following our own rules at the moment in the hope that some harm
reduction might come out of this but thats quite enough with the sarcasm. Is that what you get from trying to be helpful or
do a favor nowadays... I think everyone should see what harm can come of ID threads before acting short sighted.

Op said that 15 and 30 mg were taken orally, and he snorted 11 mg.
Also, 5-MeO-DMT can last 2.5 hours, unless my 5-MeO-DMT sample is not 5-MeO-DMT.

It can be 5-MeO-DALT, but like 5-MeO-DiPT it should be active orally, though it is weaker.
 
if it was sold to you has 2c-b, it might possibly be one of teh weaker 2c-x (2c-c or 2c-d)

reagent tests are crucial here.
 
Hopefully you have a vague notion now of things it can be, but it is probably not enough to reassure you of anything. As said, in most cases it stays inconclusive like that unless you have more unique effects.

Get the reagents to test. Closed.
