25TFM-NBOMe explained

25TFM-NBOMe (also known as NBOMe-2C-TFM, 2C-TFM-NBOMe, and Cimbi-138) is a derivative of the phenethylamine hallucinogen 2C-TFM, discovered in 2004 by Ralf Heim at the Free University of Berlin.[1] It acts as a potent partial agonist for the 5-HT2A receptor, though its relative potency is disputed, with some studies finding it to be of lower potency than 25I-NBOMe,[2] [3] while others show it to be of similar or higher potency,[4] possibly because of differences in the assay used.[5] 2C-TFM-NB2OMe can be taken to produce psychedelic effects similar to 2C-I-NB2OMe and 2C-D-NB2OMe.
