HOT-7, also known as 4-propylthio-2,5-dimethoxy-N-hydroxyphenethylamine or as N-hydroxy-2C-T-7, is a psychedelic drug of the phenethylamine, 2C, and HOT-x families.[1] It is the N-hydroxy derivative of 2C-T-7.[1] The drug is taken orally.[1]

Use and effects

[edit]

In his book PiHKAL (Phenethylamines I Have Known and Loved), Alexander Shulgin lists HOT-7's dose range as 15 to 20 mg orally and its duration as 6 to 8 hours.[1] The drug's onset and peak of effects were not described.[1] HOT-7's properties are similar to those of 2C-T-7, which has a dose of 10 to 30 mg orally and a duration of 8 to 15 hours, although HOT-7 may have a somewhat shorter duration.[1][2] HOT-7 may act as a prodrug of 2C-T-7.[2]

The effects of HOT-7 have been reported to include being "quite psychedelic", very rich in closed-eye imagery, not as much in terms of open-eye visuals, very good for interpretive and conceptual thinking, emotional changes, feeling "smoothly stoned", lightheadedness, alcohol-like tipsiness and wooziness, social avoidance, and gastrointestinal disturbances.[1]

And I have speculated in the recipe for MDOH about the possible biological interconversions of these kinds of compounds. And here, the simple addition of a hydroxyl group to the amine nitrogen atom of MDMA produces a new drug that is in most of its properties identical to MDMA. The concept has been extended to 2C-T-2, 2C-T-7, and 2C-T-17, where each of these three active compounds was structurally modified in exactly this way, by the addition of a hydroxyl group to the amine nitrogen atom. The results, HOT-2, HOT-7 and HOT-17 were themselves all active, and compared very closely with their non-hydroxylated prototypes."
