2C-C is a psychedelic entheogen first synthesized by Alexander Shulgin. The full name of the chemical is 4-chloro-2,5-dimethoxyphenethylamine. In his book PIHKAL (Phenethylamines I Have Known and Loved), Shulgin lists the dosage range as 20 to 40 mg. 2C-C is usually taken orally, but may also be insufflated. 2C-C is unscheduled and uncontrolled in the United States, but possession and sales of 2C-C could potentially be prosecuted under the Federal Analog Act because of 2C-C's close structural similarity to 2C-B.
Not much information is known about the toxicity of 2C-C. According to Shulgin, the psychoactive effects of 2C-C typically last 4-8 hours. Many users report that 2C-C is gentler and more sedating that other closely related psychedelic phenethylamines.
