In the tradition of an old thing that Mean Girl and crew did to spice this place up, the mods and I will begin to showcase a substance every month that doesn't get much attention anymore. This month's choice is 2C-B-fly! I searched through and found every 2C-B-fly report we have. Below are the links.


Enjoy and please post any comments you have about any after you read them, in the respective threads! I hope for this to remain a monthly event and tradition in this forum. I'll also leave this thread open this month for comments about this idea.
 
good luck digging up all the reports when the spotlight substance is LSD or mushrooms ;)

I dig it.
 
Every time I read more into the experience of 2c-b-fly, it makes me want 2c-e-fly even more than I already do!
 
Yep it would be nice to see who has actual experience of the stranger inhabitants of the RC zone. Things like DOB-dragonfly (bromodragonfly) have so much misinformation built up around them already that it's be good to set the facts straight.
 
Heh, I won't ever be setting the substance of the month as LSD or mushrooms! The idea is to keep it to the obscure ones, and/or the ones that haven't been discussed in a long time.
 
Nothing like them at all. I didn't experience any sort of dirty stimulation at all. It was about as stimulating as the 2Cs, except much, much smoother than even them (for me anyway). The duration is only a little longer than 2C-B, actually. 6-8 hours, max. Also, the effects, for me at least, are not strong like classic psychedelics. It was the singular easiest trip I've ever had from a psychedelic.

This stuff basically produced utter bliss and joy in me and realigned my energy for weeks and weeks. It felt very healing and really tuned me in to the universal source of love for the first time.

This is 2CB Fly, is it not?

This is 2CB Dragonfly. Am I right again?


I do wonder if anyone has tried replacing that bromine with oh, say a thioethoxy (as in 2-CT-7) or a trifluoroethyl (CF3CH2-) or maybe a Nitro group to that 4 position. A simple methyl (as in DOM) would be of interest as well....
Thinking about it, WHY is it always the bromine? Just because it's the simplest & highest yielding to make?
 
commercial reasons, probably.

Although I'd really like to see 2CD-fly. 2CD has been the best so far, although I have to explore 2CE more.
 
2C-E-fly is my number one wish, to be honest. Any of the other 2C-flys. And more 2C-B-fly. That one has been perhaps the most stable, sublime and natural state of mind a chemical has brought me. Really beautiful...
 
wow !

beautiful Fly structure !!!! :D



what about synthetis of the fly ring? Hydroquinone + Br2 --> dibromo +dichloroethane --> BuLi --> tetrahydro benzodifurane ? any info ?

From the routes I've seen, the 4 position is added last so the halogen or pseudohalogen seem the most simple to get into position. For my money, since this compound is very strong, a nitro (not noted for potency) would make a nice change. Sure, potency might drop, but it should still be in the single mg range & should be v. interesting.... I agree that the Br is chosen because it's the easiest to add. Still, the iodine & chlorine are as easy to add if you use the right succinamide...
 
I am also one of those who found 2C-B-fly an exceptionally enjoyable compound. Insightful, heartwarming and friendly. Would be nice to have a little more of it.
