2021 has been an exciting year so far for research chemicals. Every year’s exciting, but this year saw the synthesis and release of some amazing new research chemicals that have been supplied to us at Realchems so that we, in turn, can supply them to you.
As mentioned in our previous article it’s incredibly important to keep the hobby and practice of psychedelic research alive. Psychedelic medicine is the weave of the future and people are beginning to accept how well it can prevent and reduce the symptoms of various illnesses, both mental and physical.
And yet psychedelics are pursued relentlessly by the law. Fortunately, this is slowly changing as more awareness is being brought towards psychedelics in general. But for most places, full-on legalization of psychedelics is a long way away. That’s why the research chemical industry is so potent.
Research chemicals provide an alternative for those who are unable to research psychedelics but who don’t want to risk the threat of the law. Most want to avoid police interaction, and it is, unfortunately, part of their duty since the passing of numerous drug laws to Protect and Serve – which includes protecting society from any dangerous psychedelic researchers they might catch accidentally trespassing while helping an injured animal, and serving justice against anyone threatening peaceful citizens with their obnoxious public meditation.
Those who are determined not to fall onto the wrong side of the law can rely on research chemicals to help them further their study. These chemicals are made by altering the basic chemical structure shared by a number of familiar psychedelics. Research chemicals can be of any sort. Realchems tends to focus on providing researchers with.
- Tryptamines are powerful psychedelics. Natural tryptamines like DMT are well-studied but similar research analogues like 4-AcO-DMT are not as well understood.
- Phenethylamines are a diverse class of drugs that all contain a base phenethylamine structure. They contain powerful drugs including amphetamines and various psychedelics.
- Stimulants are common substances used to enhance energy levels, like coffee.
- Dissociatives usually fall under the class of arylcyclohexylamies, like ketamine and PCP. These interesting compounds have a fascinating structure to study that can leave researchers feeling dissociated and separated from their work and environment.
The Most Exciting New Research Chemicals
Whether you’re an experienced researcher or a new explorer on the frontier of chemical research, you’re no doubt going to be battered with excitement by the prospect of a new research chemical. Here are some of the best ones that we have available here!
1. 1P-LSD
1P-LSD has been available for nearly half adecade now (or nearly hallf a century, rif you count he brief period uring which Sulgin allowed the compound to be tasted among his friends and colleagues.
For many, 1P-LSD is one of the best ways to begin experimenting with research chemicals. Even experienced psychonauts are often wary to undergo the study of unfamiliar and untested territory. Initiating one’s self into the world of chemical research with the study of 1P-LSD can help researchers from feeling overwhelmed.
Many researchers are thus relieved to discover that 1P-LSD essentially functions as a prodrug for LSD. In other words, certain biological functions that require very few manual inputs allow for the conversion of 1P-LSD into LSD. This has led to some debate as to whether or not 1P-LSD is actually a research chemical or simply another form of a chemical that people are already familiar with.
The results of research are often quite similar, although most researchers agree that their conclusions are reached quicker. Thus, their research ends earlier. This makes 1P-LSD a more appropriate substance for studying on weekdays, although you still must remain cautious and vigilant.
Aside from the different amount of time required for study – a difference that some people find negligible – 1P-LSD is a pretty close reflection of regular LSD. Scholars and scientists familiar with both compounds report that the experience is nearly identical for each and that one can substitute the other almost perfectly in laboratory situations.
2. 2-FMA
2-FMA, or 2-fluoromethamphetamine, is not necessarily as ‘new’ as some of these chemicals might be considered. That said, very few of them are truly new. The majority of them were synthesized at least once by Alexander Shulgin, and the main reason that they’re available today is because of his generous publication of his work.
That said, 2-FMA is one of the few chemicals that you’re actually not going to find in either of Shulgin’s books. As a substituted amphetamine, 2-FMA was not of much interest to Shulgin who preferred his research to focus on the psychedelic mindstate. So, in that sense, 2-FMA is one of the newer drugs in the world’s chronology even if it might be one of the oldest drugs in the research category compound.
In fact, 2-FMA largely helped to bring research chemicals into the public eye as early as 2007, when it was first brought to the attention of law enforcement officials next to similar compounds like 2-FA and 4-FA.
2-FMA may not produce the same sort of colorful research experiences as psychedelics, but hat doesn’t make it any less useful. In fact, many people are fascinated by the ability of 2-FMA to seemingly increase one’s ability to study. Keeping 2-FMA in the lab often leaves one feeling motivated and determined to finish other tasks, occasionally returning to the pursuit of 2-FMA from sole fascination.
The most common comparison for 2-FMA is lisdexamphetamine, an ADD medication. Both are known to remain active for long periods of time, up to twelve years, and both have proven time and again to be valuable tools for helping researchers who struggle to maintain their focus and concentration during working hours.
3. 3-ME-PCPy
People are often quick to mistake 3-ME-PCPy with 3-MeO-PCP. In fact, most people tend to first think that it’s a typo rather than the name of a new and powerful research chemical. Nonetheless, 3-ME-PCPy, or 3-methyl-PCPy, is an arylcyclohexylamine like most of the other dissociatives that you may have studied in your research.
And, like each of these substances, 3-ME-PCPy provides its own unique effects when compared to other types of substance. In fact, compared to other similar compounds, 3-ME-PCPy is understood as being quit strange.
Not only is it abnormally potent in terms of NMDA antagonism (a similar benefit shared between most arylcyclohexylamines that result in feeling separated from your mind and body) but also a triple reuptake inhibitor. This means that it prevents the brain from undergoing the reuptake of dopamine, serotonin, and noradrenaline.
Consider the sheer potency of SSRI antidepressants. These are the most commonly prescribed drugs in the world that show remarkable potential for helping to manage depression when used over the long term. However, this drug modulates not only serotonin but two of the other major neurotransmitters as well.
That’s not to say that one should jump right into the long-term study of this particular effect. Research must be taken slowly and done in gradual increments so that you can understand the minute details of a chemical before you make any larger commitments.
4. 3-FPM
Tired of all these strange-sounding acronyms for increasingly complex chemical names? Too bad! Enter 3-fluorophenmetrazine, the most recent addition to the phenylmorpholine-based stimulant family. It’s the fluorinated analogue of phenmetrazine (so anyone who is concerned about the fluoride in their drinking water decalcifying their pineal glands should flee!)
