Lysergamides
Lysergamides, also known as ergoamides or as lysergic acid amides, are amides of lysergic acid (LA). They are ergolines, with some lysergamides being found natural product, naturally in ergot as well as other fungi. Lysergamides are notable in containing embedded substituted phenethylamine, phenethylamine and substituted tryptamine, tryptamine moiety (chemistry), moieties within their ergoline ring system (chemistry), ring system. The simplest lysergamides are ergine (lysergic acid amide; LSA) and isoergine (iso-lysergic acid amide; iso-LSA). In terms of pharmacology, the lysergamides include numerous serotonin and dopamine receptor (biochemistry), receptor agonists, most notably the psychedelic drug lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) but also a number of pharmaceutical drugs like ergometrine, methylergometrine, methysergide, and cabergoline. Various analogues of LSD, such as the psychedelics ALD-52 (1A-LSD), ETH-LAD, LSZ, and 1P-LSD and the non-hallucinogenic 2-bromo-LSD (BOL-148) ...

Lysergic Acid Diethylamide
Lysergic acid diethylamide, commonly known as LSD (from German ; often referred to as acid or lucy), is a Semisynthesis, semisynthetic, Hallucinogen, hallucinogenic compound derived from ergot, known for its powerful psychological effects and Serotonin, serotonergic activity. It was historically significant in psychiatry and 1960s counterculture; it is currently legally restricted but experiencing renewed scientific interest and increasing use. When taken orally, LSD has an onset of action within 0.4 to 1.0 hours (range: 0.1–1.8 hours) and a duration of effect lasting 7 to 12 hours (range: 4–22 hours). It is commonly administered via tabs of Blotting paper, blotter paper. LSD is extremely potent, with noticeable effects at doses as low as 20 Microgram, micrograms and is sometimes taken in much smaller amounts for microdosing. Yet no fatal human overdoses have been documented. LSD is mainly used recreationally or for spiritual purposes. LSD can cause mystical experiences. ...

Psychedelic Drug
Psychedelics are a subclass of hallucinogenic drugs whose primary effect is to trigger non-ordinary mental states (known as psychedelic experiences or "trips") and a perceived "expansion of consciousness". Also referred to as classic hallucinogens or serotonergic hallucinogens, the term ''psychedelic'' is sometimes used more broadly to include various other types of hallucinogens as well, such as those which are atypical or adjacent to psychedelia like salvia and MDMA, respectively. Classic psychedelics generally cause specific psychological, visual, and auditory changes, and oftentimes a substantially altered state of consciousness. They have had the largest influence on science and culture, and include mescaline, LSD, psilocybin, and DMT. There are a large number of both naturally occurring and synthetic serotonergic psychedelics. Most psychedelic drugs fall into one of the three families of chemical compounds: tryptamines, phenethylamines, or lysergamides. T ...

Lysergic Acid
Lysergic acid, also known as -lysergic acid and (+)-lysergic acid, is a precursor for a wide range of ergoline alkaloids that are produced by the ergot fungus and found in the seeds of '' Argyreia nervosa'' ( Hawaiian baby woodrose), and ''Ipomoea'' species ( morning glories, ololiuhqui, tlitliltzin). Amides of lysergic acid, lysergamides, are widely used as pharmaceuticals and as psychedelic drugs, e.g. lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD). Lysergic acid is listed as a Table I precursor under the United Nations Convention Against Illicit Traffic in Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances. The name Lysergic acid comes from the fact that it is a carboxylic acid, and it was first made by hydrolysis of various ergot alkaloids. Synthesis Laboratory Lysergic acid is generally produced by hydrolysis of natural lysergamides, but can also be synthesized in the laboratory by a complex total synthesis, for example by Robert Burns Woodward's team in 1956. An enantioselective total ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
1P-LSD
1P-LSD, also known as 1-propanoyl-lysergic acid diethylamide (1-propionyl-LSD), is a psychedelic drug of the lysergamide class that is a derivative and functional analogue of LSD and a homologue of ALD-52. It originated in 2015 when it appeared a designer drug sold online. It was first synthesized as a legal-LSD alternative by Lizard Labs, a Netherlands based research chemical laboratory. It modifies the LSD molecule by adding a propionyl group to the nitrogen atom of LSD's indole group. Pharmacology Like ALD-52, 1P-LSD is believed to act as a prodrug for LSD via hydrolysis of the propionyl group. When 1P-LSD is incubated in human serum, administered intravenously to rats, or administered either orally or intravenously to human subjects, high levels of LSD and relatively low levels of 1P-LSD are quickly detected, demonstrating that 1P-LSD is rapidly hydrolyzed into LSD ''in vivo'' following ingestion. Indeed, following intravenous administration in humans 1P-LSD is detectable ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
ETH-LAD
ETH-LAD, or ETHLAD, also known as 6-ethyl-6-nor-lysergic acid diethylamide (6-ethyl-6-nor-LSD), is a psychedelic drug of the lysergamide family related to lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD; also known as METH-LAD). It is slightly more potent than LSD and is among the most potent psychedelics known. The drug has been encountered as a novel designer drug in Europe. In addition, a prodrug of ETH-LAD, 1P-ETH-LAD, has been developed and encountered. Use and effects ETH-LAD is slightly more potent than LSD in both animals and humans. It is about 1.6- to 2.3-fold more potent than LSD in rodent drug discrimination tests. The drug's human dose range is 20 to 150μg orally, compared to a range of 50 to 200μg given for LSD, and it is said to be roughly twice as potent as LSD in humans. As such, ETH-LAD is one of the most potent serotonergic psychedelics in humans known, if not the most potent known psychedelic. Moreover, it has been said that LSD can no longer be considered the most pot ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Ergine
Ergine, also known as lysergic acid amide (LSA or LAA) as well as LA-111, is a psychoactive compound of the ergoline and lysergamide families related to lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD). Ergine is an ergoline alkaloid found in fungi such as '' Claviceps paspali'' (ergot) and '' Periglandula'' species such as '' Periglandula clandestina'', which are permanently connected with many morning glory vines. Ergine induces relatively mild psychedelic effects as well as pronounced sedative effects. The most common sources of ergine for use as a drug are the seeds of morning glory species including ''Ipomoea tricolor'' (tlitliltzin), '' Ipomoea corymbosa'' (ololiuhqui), and '' Argyreia nervosa'' (Hawaiian baby woodrose). Morning glory seeds have a history of entheogenic use in Mesoamerica dating back at least hundreds of years. They have also since been used by many Westerners. In addition to ergine, morning glory seeds contain other ergolines such as lysergic acid hydroxyethylamid ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Isoergine
Isoergine, also known as isolysergic acid amide (iso-LSA or iso-LA-819), isolysergamide, or erginine, is a serotonergic psychedelic of the ergoline and lysergamide families related to ergine (lysergic acid amide; LSA) and lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD). It is the epimer of ergine inverted at the 8 position. Along with ergine and other ergolines, isoergine occurs naturally in morning glories. It is thought to be primarily responsible for the hallucinogenic effects of morning glory seeds. Use and effects Isoergine occurs naturally in morning glory species, including ''Ipomoea tricolor'' (tlitliltzin), ''Ipomoea corymbosa'' (ololiuhqui), and '' Argyreia nervosa'' (Hawaiian baby woodrose). It has been found to constitute 8 to 35% of total alkaloid content relative to 5 to 58% for ergine. Albert Hofmann, the discoverer of LSD's psychedelic effects, tried 2mg isoergine orally and experienced feelings of unreality, detachment from the outside world, feelings of mental emptiness ...

Ergotamine
Ergotamine, sold under the brand name Ergomar among others, is an ergopeptine and part of the ergot family of alkaloids; it is structurally and biochemically closely related to ergoline. It is structurally similar to several neurotransmitters, and it acts as a vasoconstrictor. It is used for acute migraines, sometimes with caffeine as the combination ergotamine/caffeine. The drug is a non-selective modulator or agonist of serotonin receptors and other receptors. It is peripherally selective and crosses into the brain in minimal amounts. Medicinal use of ergot fungus began in the 16th century, for the induction of childbirth; but dosage uncertainty discouraged its use. It has been used to prevent post-partum hemorrhage (bleeding after childbirth). It was first isolated from the ergot fungus by Arthur Stoll, at Sandoz in 1918, and was marketed as Gynergen in 1921. Medical uses Ergotamine is indicated as therapy to abort or prevent vascular headache. Available ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Ergopeptine
Ergoline is a core structure in many alkaloids and their synthetic derivatives. Ergoline alkaloids were first characterized in ergot. Some of these are implicated in the condition of ergotism, which can take a convulsive form or a gangrenous form. Even so, many ergoline alkaloids have been found to be clinically useful. Annual world production of ergot alkaloids has been estimated at 5,000–8,000 kg of all ergopeptines and 10,000–15,000 kg of lysergic acid, used primarily in the manufacture of semi-synthetic derivatives. Others, such as lysergic acid diethylamide, better known as LSD, a semi-synthetic derivative, and ergine, a natural derivative found in '' Argyreia nervosa'', ''Ipomoea tricolor'' and related species, are known psychedelic substances. Natural occurrence Ergoline alkaloids are found in fungi such as Claviceps purpurea, Claviceps paspali, and the related Periglandula, which have a permanent, symbiotic bond with numerous flowering vines, most notably ...
