Molecular structure of LSD.

The molecular configuration of lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) in crystals of the iodobenzoate has been determined by using x-ray diffraction techniques. The configuration shows strain and steric hindrance and the conformation is fixed. Some of the implications of this for the hallucinogenic activity of LSD are discussed.

Acetylcholine

The conformation of cholinergic molecules at nicotinic nerve receptors.

A correlation of the crystal structure analyses of the potent nicotinic agonists acetylcholine, acetyl-alpha-methylcholine, lactoylcholine, 1,1-dimethyl-4-phenylpiperazine, and nicotine allows one to determine the conformation of cholinergic agonists relevant to nicotinic nerve receptors.
