In the mid-1930s a substance was isolated from a fungus that is a parasite of ryes and other grasses. This alkaloid, lysergic acid, has
been of great interest to chemists because of its strange, dramatic action on the human mind. Many derivatives of lysergic acid are
known, some with medicinal applications. Perhaps the best known derivative of lysergic acid is the potent hallucinogen lysergic acid
diethylamide (LSD):
