What is "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 of it does not have a known pharmacological action or a precursor relationship to LSD, which is a controlled substance. However, lysergol can be utilized as an intermediate in the manufacture of some ergoloid medicines (e.g. nicergoline).
