2C-I (2,5-Dimethoxy-4-iodophenethylamine) is a phenethylamine of the 2C family with psychedelic properties, primarily used as a recreational drug.[1] It was first synthesized by Alexander Shulgin, and is described in Shulgin's book PiHKAL (1991).

The substance is consumed as a recreational drug, and is circulated in the illicit market in a powder or liquid form. 2C-I is sometimes confused with other related chemical substances such as 25I-NBOMe (2C-I-NBOMe), nicknamed "Smiles" and "N-bomb" in the media.[2][3][4]
