EEE, also known as 2,4,5-triethoxyamphetamine or as TMA2-2,4,5-TriEtO, is a chemical compound of the phenethylamine, amphetamine, and DOx families.[1][2][3][4] It is the analogue of TMA-2 in which the three methoxy groups on the phenyl ring have been replaced with ethoxy groups.[1][3][4] In his book PiHKAL (Phenethylamines I Have Known and Loved), Alexander Shulgin lists EEE's dose and duration as unknown.[1] Shulgin stated that EEE has never been tested in humans.[1][2] The chemical synthesis of EEE has been described.[1][3] EEE was first described in the scientific literature by Shulgin in 1968.[3] Subsequently, it was described in greater detail by Shulgin in PiHKAL in 1991.[1]
