This video does not explain
This video does not explain or suggest how to make drugs, and is purely educational and theoretical. A team of chemists recently reported a synthesis of lysergic acid, the precursor of the psychoactive drug LSD, in only 6 laboratory steps. In this video, we will learn why LSD-like scaffolds are of interest to modern drug discovery and look into the chemistry of this short but sweet synthesis.
