Florence, also known as 2-ethoxy-5-methoxy-4-methylamphetamine or as DOM-2ETO, is a chemical compound of the phenethylamine, amphetamine, and DOx families related to DOM.[1][2] It is the derivative of DOM in which the methoxy group at the 2 position has been replaced with an ethoxy group analogously to in the TWEETIO series.[1][2] According to Alexander Shulgin in his book PiHKAL (Phenethylamines I Have Known and Loved), Florence may have been synthesized but is not known to have been tested.[1][2] Along with its positional isomer Iris (DOM-5ETO), the compound is one of Shulgin's "ten classic ladies", a series of methylated DOM derivatives.[1][2] Florence was first described in the literature by at least 1970.[1][3]

"And there are five positions (2,3,4,5 and 6) around the aromatic ring, each of which either carries a hydrogen atom or a methyl group that has a hydrogen atom. There is the 2-methoxy group which can become a 2-ethoxy group to produce a compound called FLORENCE. Her name is the English translation of the Italian Firenze, a city that, although having a female name, has always seemed thoroughly masculine to me. [...] and the other ethoxy homologue, FLORENCE, would be easily made based on the preparation of the phenethylamine analogue, 2CD-2ETO. Perhaps it has already been made somehow, somewhere, as I have noted that I have claimed its citrate salt as a new compound in a British patent."
