lysergol lysergol lysergol is an alkaloid of the ergoline family that occurs as a minor constituent in some species of fungi (most within claviceps), and in the morning glory family of plants (convolvulaceae), including the hallucinogenic seeds of rivea corymbosa (ololiuhqui), argyreia nervosa (hawaiian baby woodrose) and ipomoea violacea. lysergol is not a controlled substance in the usa. its possession and sale is also legal under the u.s. federal analog act because it does not have a known pharmacological action or a precursor relationship to lsd, which is a controlled substance. however, lysergol is an intermediate in the manufacture of some ergoloid medicines (e.g., nicergoline). not to be confused with liserdol or lisuride. lysergol names iupac name (6-methyl-9,10-didehydroergolin-8β-yl)methanol systematic iupac name quinolin-9-yl]methanol identifiers cas number 1413-67-8 y 3d model (jsmol) interactive image chebi chebi:60528 y chembl chembl39947 y chemspider 14267 y echa infocard 100.009.113 iuphar/bps 123 pubchem cid 14987 unii ntr684z1az y comptox dashboard (epa) dtxsid40975627 inchi inchi=1s/c16h18n2o/c1-18-8-10(9-19)5-13-12-3-2-4-14-16(12)11(7-17-14)6-15(13)18/h2-5,7,10,15,17,19h,6,8-9h2,1h3/t10-,15-/m1/s1 ykey: bixjfijybljtmk-mebbxxqbsa-n y smiles oc3/c=c2/c4cccc1c4c(c1)c2n(c3)c properties chemical formula c16h18n2o molar mass 254.33 g/mol except where otherwise noted, data are given for materials in their standard state (at 25 °c , 100 kpa). n verify (what is yn ?) infobox references lysergol can be synthesised using a tandem reaction to construct the piperidine skeleton and a rhodium-catalyzed annulation in the late-stage indole formation.
