From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ergoline is a chemical compound whose structural skeleton is contained in a variety of alkaloids, referred to as ergoline derivatives or ergoline alkaloids. Ergoline alkaloids, one being ergine, were initially characterized in ergot. Some of these are implicated in the condition ergotism, which can take a convulsive form or a gangrenous form. Even so, many ergoline alkaloids have been found to be clinically useful. Annual world production of ergot alkaloids has been estimated at 5,000-8000 kg of all ergopeptines and 10,000-15000 kg of lysergic acid, used primarily in the manufacture of semi-synthetic derivatives.[1]

Others, such a LSD, a fully synthetic derivative, and ergine, an natural derivative found in Argyreia nervosa, Ipomoea tricolor and related species, are known psychedelic substances.[2]
