Lysergol → HCID 22803977, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of Lysergol (1.5 g) and Palladium on carbon (5%, 50% wet, 75 mg) in N,N-dimethylformamide (15 mL) is hydrogenated at 50-60° C. and 40-50 psi until the theoretical volume of hydrogen has been absorbed. The reaction mixture is cooled, filtered and the insoluble material is washed with more N,N-dimethylformamide. The filtrate is evaporated to dryness and suspended with water. The resulting suspension is filtered, washed with more water. The solid is dried under vacuum to give 1.47 g of dihydrolysergol in 97% yield.
