25I-NBOMe, also known as 2C-I-NBOMe, Cimbi-5, and shortened to "25I", is a psychedelic drug of the phenethylamine, 2C, and NBOMe (25-NB) families.[1] Since 2010, it has circulated in the recreational drug scene, often misrepresented as LSD.[6] It is the most well-known member of the 25-NB family and the earliest member to be encountered as a novel recreational drug.[6]

The carbon-11 labelled version of 25I-NBOMe, [11C]Cimbi-5, was synthesized and validated as a radiotracer for positron emission tomography (PET) in Copenhagen.[7][8] Being the first 5-HT2A receptor full agonist PET radioligand, [11C]CIMBI-5 shows promise as a more functional marker of these receptors, particularly in their high affinity states.[7]

Street and media nicknames for this drug include "N-Bomb", "Solaris", "Smiles", and "Wizard", although the drug is frequently fraudulently sold as LSD.[1][9][10][11]

Due to its physical effects and risk of overdose, there have been multiple deaths attributed to the drug.[1] Its long-term toxicity is unknown due to lack of existing research.

25I-NBOMe was first described in 2000.[12][13][14] It was first encountered as a novel recreational drug in 2010, and by 2012, NBOMes like 25I-NBOMe had surpassed other major psychedelics like LSD and psilocybin-containing mushrooms in popularity, at least for a time.[15][16][17][18] 25I-NBOMe became a controlled substance in the United States in 2013.[15]
