1V-LSD (1-valeryl-D-lysergic acid diethylamide), sometimes nicknamed Valerie, is a psychotropic substance and a research chemical with psychedelic effects.[1][2] 1V-LSD is an artificial derivative of natural lysergic acid, which occurs in ergot alkaloids, as well as being an analogue of LSD.[3] 1V-LSD has been sold online until an amendment to the German NpSG was enforced in 2022 which controls 1P-LSD and now 1cP-LSD, 1V-LSD and several other lysergamides.[4]

Pharmacology

As demonstrated with other N-acylated derivatives of LSD, 1V-LSD is believed to serve as a prodrug for LSD but may also act as a weak partial agonist at the 5-HT2A receptor.[3]

Animal studies

A Head-twitch response assay in mice found that 1V-LSD has a similar potency to 1P-LSD and 1cP-LSD, with behavioral effects also closely resembling these structural analogs.[5]

Chemistry

1V-LSD is the condensation product of valeric acid (pentanoic acid) and LSD, where the valeroyl group is substituted on the NH position of the indole moiety.[6] Ehrlich's reagent is used to identify the presence of an indole moiety; the chemical backbone of the lysergamide and ergoline molecules.[7] However, as with other N-acylated lysergamides, 1V-LSD reacts very slowly to Ehrlich reagent and may not give reliable results if the reagent isn't fresh.[8][9]

Legal position

1V-LSD is illegal in the United States as a Schedule 1 controlled drug or controlled substance under the Federal Analogue Act except if is sold for research and medical purposes like a research chemical [citation needed]

Since March 2nd 2022, 1V-LSD has been under investigation in Sweden and may therefore soon become controlled.

1V-LSD was placed under legal control in South Korea in July 2022 on a temporary but renewable basis.[10]

An amendment to the NpSG banned the sale of 1V-LSD in Germany in September 2022. Due to a interpunctation error in the actualised NpSG, the ban never took effect.[11] The law was amended in March 2023, now banning 1V-LSD.
