The Big and Dandy 2C-B Scraps Thread

Status
Not open for further replies.
well snorted 2C's comes up extremely quickly: at the time you finish snorting the rail you already feel high !
It fucking hurts like nothing does (snorting lemon juice with salt and pepper in it is probably less painful)
The snorted dose has to be half (or even 40 % ) the oral dose (as is acts twice stronger when snorted)
Snorted 2C's are less pleasant than oral 2C's (it's so intense that you don't really enjoy the warm mystic feelings you may get from oral use, with inssuflation it comes up incredibly quick, you're extremely fucked up but I think it's less pleasurable)
Also effects from insufflation will last shorter (maybe 6h at most)

never done it myself but i recall reading somewhere that the feeling after snorting 2cb is similar to the feeling of being punched in the face

quite correct, after 16-17mg up the nose, it turned myself and my ever so sturdy partner into dancing monkeys around the kitchen, i'm surprised the neighbours didn't come over and check what was going on, there was that much "holy fuck!" going on.

i will agree that snorted 2cb does produce intense visuals, but the pain and the inevitable vomit after you snort are not worth it.
 
It was bad, but if someone was offering me 2c-B again, and the only way I could do it was up the nose, I'd do it in a second. The pain goes away, the trip stays. For it not to ruin the beginning of your trip you have to mentally prepare yourself.
 
2-CB, test results & MDMA combo

I have obtained some small capsuls which are supposedly 2-CB.

I tested the powder with the Dancesafe Marquis test kit & the test results were exactly as indicated on the card for 2-CB. Yellow/Green, to light green, to darker green, all within 10 seconds.

(Ended up a very dark green after having been left alone for 5-10 minutes)

No other color variants in test result.

I have several questions to ask. I have never consumed 2-CB or any of the 2C family. I have been looking for 2-CB for 6 years, and this is the first time I have come across anything that may potentially be it.

I recognize that 2-CI & other members of the family are currently available as research chemicals, and I realize that they may give an identical test reaction to 2-CB with the Marquis kit.

My questions:

Is anyone familiar with the testing kit reactions for the members of the 2C family? Is there any way to tell between 2CB & 2CI for example?

Is 2CB going around at all, is it even remotely possible that is what I have (I'm in Houston, Texas) or do you think it is almost certainly a research chemical of some kind? (I realize there is no way to know without lab testing, I just want an opinion)

Due to the high cost, I was not able to obtain much. I only have a few oppotunities for use. I have always read 2CB is preferable when combined with MDMA.

I understand the best way to do this is to consume the 2CB after the MDMA peak has ended.

But I am concerned of what the effects may be if this is another 2C family member, and not 2CB.

Is it safe to combine 2CI with MDMA in the fashion that 2CB is normally consumed with MDMA?

What is the mechanism of action of 2CB? Will it reduce serotonin levels like MDMA and result in a "blue Tuesday"?

Any thoughts or advice are appreciated. I am interested in the possibility of trying this tomorrow and am trying to determine how to proceed.

Even if I consume it alone, I will have no way of knowing what it is, as I have no basis of comparison.

What are the quantifiable differences between 2CB and the other 2C research chemicals currently available? Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance,
SupaKat

2C-I does not turn green with Marquis. 2C-C's reaction looks a bit like 2C-B, but I think the lime green from 2C-B is pretty distinctive. AFAIK only DOB produces the same reaction as 2C-B with Marquis.
 
Thanks very much for the response. I just realized I said mecke instead of marquis, you're right of course, I did test with marquis.

The reaction was very lime green, very bright, very immediate. Certainly not a reaction I have ever seen before. Hopefully, it is what it is supposed to be.

Thanks again...

Not true. 2C-I turns green in a very similar way as 2C-B and 2C-C. I have marquis tested many batches of 2C-I, including ones that I had subsequently analyzed by an independent source. 2C-I tends to be a bit lighter than 2C-B, but the difference is really only appearant when you have both next to each other. DOB and DOI will also produce the green, but I have not yet marquis tested DOC.
 
Morningglory seed, what is your opinion on combining 2-CI or 2-CC with MDMA?

huh! As I said, I no longer have the notes, I'll have to go do it over again. In my memory banks the reactions do not look at all similar. Of course, it's possible the 2C-I I tested is not 2C-I, however bioassays among several individuals have led to confidence that it is 2C-I. I remember the rxn as being very muddy, not at all a light pure green like 2C-B. I'm truly sorry if I've provided bad info. I'm now getting the reagents out of the fridge for some fresh tests.

Keep in mind that the list of reactions on the bottom of that erowid page is comprised of information sent in by members, and is unverified. MGS, I know you're rather high up on the erowid totem pole - could you comment about the reliability of the reactions listed on that page? I've always taken them with a grain of salt.

Is it possible that unreacted impurities, such as iodione, may affect the reactions? One hears about batches of 2C-I which look very different from one another, and wonders if this may be a factor.

I'm primarily concerned about my own safety. If I take a small dose of MDMA, and then after the peak consume a capsul, I don't want the two to combine in some totally unanticipated and dangerous way.

So I am very interested in any opinions on the effect of combining 2CI or 2CC with MDMA in this manner. Is it common, as it is to mix 2CB with MDMA or is it not recommended?
 
I've tried 2C-C and 2C-D when coming down from MDMA, neither felt dangerous to the body but both were disappointing when compared to 2C-B taken in the same manner. A few negative reports turned me off of the idea of trying 2C-I in this manner, but I've seen many glowing reports since.
 
Thank you for your responses. We'll see how it goes.

I've tried to get my hands on 2CB for 6 years with no luck. Hopefully I will not be dissapointed.
 
Also, does anyone have any advice in regards to the commonly reported allergies with this drug...the so called excessive mucus?

Is psuedoephedrine safe to mix in with everything? Several on erowid said psuedoephedrine reduced the mucus effects.
 
Well, I retested the 2C-I with Marquis and it went yellow to brown quickly, then the brown changed to blue/black over the course of a couple minutes. The final color actually looked a lot like MDMA, minus the purple tint. 2C-C did in fact look quite a bit like 2C-B, though there were subtle differences to be seen when they were all tested on the same plate, and the final colors after waiting a couple minutes were fairly different. 2C-D had no blue at all and eventually went brown.

The 2C-B I used for reference went yellow to lime green very quickly, then slowly changed to a mix of blue and green.

Not that you're worried about it, but DOC turned yellow and stayed yellow.

I will say that I've not had any of these independantly analyzed, but with the exception of 2C-B they all came from very reputable sources, not shady sites.


*edit* I decided to test a different batch of 2C-B (in the HBr salt) and it stayed green with only hints of blue in the final color. I suspect the 2C-B HCl which I tested may be impure.

This is a very accurate description of what I saw. What were the final colors for 2CC & 2CD?
 
2C-C : yellow, joined slowly by blue, which then mixed into a funky green, a bit lighter than 2C-B's final color - I could see mistaking this for 2C-B if not done side-by-side, except that it never really went lime-green

2C-D: yellow, to orange, to brown, not very dark though
