^View my edited post above, looks like I may have serendipitously stumbled over the debutante.
I interpreted this as meaning the amide nitrogen, not the 6- position, but I guess it means alkyl groups on any nitrogen atom, presumably the indole nitrogen as well, I obviously didn't think. You are right, I was mistaken, much to my chagrin. Mea culpa. LSB/LAB/whatever we're calling N-isobutylLAD is covered too, in this case.Lysergide and other N-alkyl derivatives of Lysergamide
Hang on... in lysergamide, the 6- position nitrogen is already a tertiary amine. So, couldn't one argue that the higher homologues aren't really "N-alkyl derivatives" of lysergamide, because that would imply another C-N bond, a quaternary ammonium compound? Seems so sloppily and vaguely worded, if you compare it to the rigour evident in the precise terms used in the catch-all clauses for phens/tryps/ArC6Ns it's just rubbish. I'm not a legal expert, is it possible this is a grey area that would need precedent to be decided? Is "derivative" even strictly defined by any authority? I'm mad as hell and I can't take it anymore!
