Methyl ergoline acid, also known as D-Lysergic Acid Methyl Ester, is a light grey to black solid at room temperature and pressure. It is insoluble in water but soluble in highly polar organic solvents. Lysergic acid methyl ester is an indole alkaloid derivative that can be prepared by esterification of lysergic acid and methanol. It can be used as an organic synthesis intermediate, mainly for the synthesis of alkaloid bioactive molecules. In addition, this substance is related to the synthesis of a variety of psychoactive hallucinogens, for example, it can be used to synthesize the psychedelic drug ergodiethylamine.
Methyl ergoate can be used as an export chemical reagent and for research in the scientific field. Meanwhile, it is also the raw material for manufacturing ergoyl diethylamine (LSD), and ergoyl diethylamine is a representative of hallucinogens. Therefore, methyl ergoate is regulated by the state. It should be noted that it is not a drug used for the prevention and control of postpartum hemorrhage. The drug used for the prevention and control of postpartum hemorrhage is methylergosinine. Methylergosinine is a potent, selective and orally active 5-HT receptor antagonist with vasoconstrictive and uterine contraction effects. It can be used to prevent and control postpartum hemorrhage and also for the treatment of migraines, etc.
