FLY families. It can be regarded as the fully aromatic derivative of
2C-B-FLY. 2C-B-DRAGONFLY is stronger than
2C-B or 2C-B-FLY with around 2–3x the potency of 2C-B in animal studies, demonstrating the importance of the fully aromatic benzodifuran ring system for optimum receptor binding at
5-HT2A, but it is still considerably less potent than its alpha-methyl derivative
Bromo-DragonFLY.
