    (c) the following phenethylamine derivatives, namely - 

    [erowid note: erowid has added our guesses at the PiHKAL names for the following phenethylamines, but this is a first stab at this and we are not 100% positive about all the IDs, so corrections are welcome]

         Allyl(alpha-methyl-3,4-methylenedioxyphenethyl)amine [erowid: aka MDAL, PiHKAL 101]

         2-Amino-1-(2,5-dimethoxy-4-methylphenyl)ethanol [erowid: aka BOHD, PiHKAL 16]

         2-Amino-1-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)ethanol [erowid: aka DME, PiHKAL 57]

         Benzyl(alpha-methyl-3,4-methylenedioxyphenethyl)amine [erowid: aka MDBZ, PiHKAL 103]

         4-Bromo-ß,2,5-trimethoxyphenethylamine [erowid: aka BOB, PiHKAL 13]

         N-(4-sec-Butylthio-2,5-dimethoxyphenethyl)hydroxylamine [erowid: aka HOT-17, PiHKAL 89]

         Cyclopropylmethyl(alpha-methyl-3,4-methylenedioxyphenethyl)amine [erowid: aka MDCPM, PiHKAL 104]

         2-(4,7-Dimethoxy-2,3-dihydro-1H-indan-5-yl)ethylamine [erowid: aka 2C-G-3, PiHKAL 28 -- If this was what was meant by the British, there is an error on their part. An indane is a 2,3-dihydroindene so there cannot be such a thing as a 2,3-dihydro-indane. The name they probably intended to use was: 2-(4,7-Dimethoxy-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-5-yl)ethylamine]

         2-(4,7-Dimethoxy-2,3-dihydro-1H-indan-5-yl)-1-methylethylamine [erowid: aka G-3, PiHKAL 82 - Exactly the same error as was made in their attempt to list PiHKAL #28, presented in the entry immediately above this one. As written, it makes no sense. What was intended, surely, was: 2-(4,7-Dimethoxy-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-5-yl)-1-methylethylamine]

         2-(2,5-Dimethoxy-4-methylphenyl)cyclopropylamine [erowid: aka DMCPA, PiHKAL 56]

         2-(1,4-Dimethoxy-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-2-naphthyl)ethylamine [erowid: AKA 2C-G-4, PiHKAL 29]

         2-(1,4-Dimethoxy-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-2-naphthyl)-1-methylethylamine [erowid: aka G-4, PiHKAL 83]

         alpha, alpha-Dimethyl-3,4-methylenedioxyphenethylamine [erowid: aka MDPH, PiHKAL 116]

         alpha, alpha-Dimethyl-3,4-methylenedioxyphenethyl(methyl)amine [erowid: aka MDMP, PiHKAL 113 ]

         Dimethyl(alpha-methyl-3,4-methylenedioxyphenethyl)amine [erowid: aka MDDM, PiHKAL 105]

         N-(4-Ethylthio-2,5-dimethoxyphenethyl)hydroxylamine [erowid: aka HOT-2, PiHKAL 87]

         4-Iodo-2,5-dimethoxy-a-methylphenethyl(dimethyl)amine [erowid: aka IDNNA , PiHKAL 90]

         2-(1,4-Methano-5,8-dimethoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-6-naphthyl)ethylamine [erowid: aka 2C-G-5, PiHKAL 30]

         2-(1,4-Methano-5,8-dimethoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-6-naphthyl)-1-methylethylamine [erowid: aka G-5, PiHKAL 84]

         2-(5-Methoxy-2,2-dimethyl-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]furan-6-yl)-1-methylethylamine [erowid: aka F-22, PiHKAL 80]

         2-Methoxyethyl(alpha-methyl-3,4-methylenedioxyphenethyl)amine [erowid: aka MDMEOET, PiHKAL 112]

         2-(5-Methoxy-2-methyl-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]furan-6-yl)-1-methylethylamine [erowid: aka F-2, PiHKAL 79]

         ß-Methoxy-3,4-methylenedioxyphenethylamine [erowid: aka BOH, PiHKAL 15]

         1-(3,4-Methylenedioxybenzyl)butyl(ethyl)amine [erowid: Ethyl-K, thanks to N]

         1-(3,4-Methylenedioxybenzyl)butyl(methyl)amine [erowid: Methyl-K, thanks to N]

         2-(alpha-Methyl-3,4-methylenedioxyphenethylamino)ethanol [erowid: aka MDHOET, PiHKAL 107]

         alpha-Methyl-3,4-methylenedioxyphenethyl(prop-2-ynyl)amine [erowid: aka MDPL, PiHKAL 117]

         N-Methyl-N-(alpha-methyl-3,4-methylenedioxyphenethyl)hydroxylamine [erowid: aka FLEA, PiHKAL 81]

         O-Methyl-N-(alpha-methyl-3,4-methylenedioxyphenethyl)hydroxylamine [erowid: aka MDMEO, PiHKAL 111]

         alpha-Methyl-4-(methylthio)phenethylamine [erowid: not found in PiKHAL by me .. analog of 4-MA ; probly not as evil to schedule given 4-MA's toxicity. 2C-T without the 2,5diMeO part. -- Early reports of it were dated 1998, in DEA's Microgram Vol. 31, May, page 150 and June page 174. The initial pharmacological studies were by David Nichols, see European J. Pharm. Vol. 229 pp 31-38 (1992). The British seized some 25,000 tablets (called "Flatliners") which were analyzed as being 4-MTA by the London Toxicology Group.]

         ß,3,4,5-Tetramethoxyphenethylamine [erowid: aka BOM, PiHKAL 17]

         ß,2,5-Trimethoxy-4-methylphenethylamine [erowid: aka BOD, PiHKAL 14]

      (i) by replacement of the l-methyl group by an acyl, alkyl whether or not unsaturated, benzyl or phenethyl group, whether or not further substituted;

      (ii) by substitution in the piperidine ring with alkyl or alkenyl groups or with a propano bridge, whether or not further substituted;
