  Dimemebfe (5-MeO-BFE) is a recreational drug and research chemical. It acts as an agonist for the $5-HT_{1A}$ and $5-HT_2$ family of serotonin receptors. It is related in structure to the psychedelic tryptamine derivative 5-MeO-DMT, but with the indole nitrogen replaced by oxygen, making dimemebfe a benzofuran derivative. It is several times less potent as a serotonin agonist than 5-MeO-DMT and with relatively more activity at $5-HT_{1A},$ but still shows strongest effects at the $5-HT_2$ family of receptors.
  
  ## Legal status
  
  Dimemebfe is a Schedule I controlled substance in the US state of Alabama.
