Original result from DrugsData showed only 1P-LSD but the Ehrlich reaction showed a strong purple color, which is not consistent with 1P-lSD.
Tryptamine is not known to be psychoactive at this dose range, though its possible effects on pharmacology of ergoloids has not been documented in Experience Reports nor in the scientific/medical literature.
July 14 2021: The unidentified substance was tentatively identified as tryptamine (CAS #61-54-1). Working to confirm this. A lab standard has been ordered. When it arrives, we will run it through the GC/MS alongside this sample and will do an Ehrlich reagent color test, as well.
Many thanks to the person who wrote in asking about the discrepancy between our identification and the Ehrlich response!
There is a peak the lab had initially ignored in our reporting, but we are now calling an unidentified. On the unidentified PDF, it is Scan 1108 at 7.199 min. We do not currently know what this chemical is.
The 'uncertain' issue is that the Ehrlich reagent turned purple on this blotter sample but does NOT turn purple with pure 1P-LSD.
We are working on trying to explain this dicrepancy. Three possibilities currently we're exploring:
1) 1P-LSD turns purple in Ehrlich reagent after a long time (now RULED OUT)
2) The unknown we found in the sample (but did not initially report) is turning purple with Ehrlich.
3) The blotter paper, dye, or some other component of the blotter paper is causing the purple reaction with Ehrlich reagent. Note that the unidentified could be a non-drug chemical that fits under (this) reason #3.
