<p><b>New page</b></p><div>'''Lysergic acid''' is an organic compound that forms the core structure of many ergoline alkaloids, which are found in a variety of organisms, including fungi, plants, and animals. It is best known as the precursor to [[LSD]] (lysergic acid diethylamide), a powerful psychedelic drug.<br />
<br />
==Chemistry==<br />
Lysergic acid is a complex molecule with a unique structure. It is a carboxylic acid that contains a bicyclic structure, which is composed of a hexahydroindole fused to a bicyclic quinoline group (lysergic acid is hence a polycyclic amine). This core structure is common to all lysergic acid derivatives, including LSD.<br />
<br />
==Biosynthesis==<br />
In nature, lysergic acid is produced by the fungus ''[[Claviceps purpurea]]'', which infects rye and other grains. The fungus synthesizes lysergic acid as part of its secondary metabolism, using the amino acid tryptophan as a precursor. The biosynthesis process involves several enzymatic steps, including decarboxylation, condensation, and oxidation.<br />
<br />
==Uses==<br />
Lysergic acid is primarily known for its role in the synthesis of LSD, but it also serves as a precursor for other ergoline alkaloids. These compounds have a wide range of pharmacological effects and have been used in the treatment of various medical conditions, such as migraines and Parkinson's disease.<br />
<br />
==Safety==<br />
While lysergic acid itself is not a controlled substance, many of its derivatives are. These include LSD, which is a Schedule I controlled substance in the United States. Exposure to lysergic acid can cause skin and eye irritation, and ingestion can lead to hallucinations and other psychological effects.<br />
