10,11-Secoergoline, also known as 3-(2-piperidylmethyl)indole or as α,N-tetramethylenetryptamine, is the structure of ergoline in which the bond between the 10 and 11 positions of the ring system has been broken to unconstrain the molecule.Alexander Senning The Etymology of Chemical Names: Tradition and Convenience vs. Rationality in Chemical Nomenclature 4. The IUPAC systematic nomenclature De Gruyter 8 October 2019 978-3-11-061271-4 10.1515/9783110612714-004 167–236 10,11-Secoergoline (3-{(2S)-[(piperidin-2-yl)methyl]}-1H-indole). The name ergoline is ultimately from ergot (Claviceps purpurea).Indole, 3-(2-piperidylmethyl)- PubChem https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/21346 18 March 2025 It is also a tryptamine with the amine cyclized into a piperidine ring connected to the α position.
A notable derivative of 10,11-secoergoline is CT-5252 (methyl-12-bromo-8,9-didehydro-2,3β-dihydro-6-methyl-10,11-secoergoline-8-carboxylate), which is an analogue of lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) with some of the same behavioral effects in animals but with much lower potency. David E. Nichols Potential Psychotomimetics: Bromomethoxyamphetamines and Structural Congeners of Lysergic Acid May 1973 University of Iowa 18–19 1194694085 https://bitnest.netfirms.com/external/Theses/Nichols1973 The dihydroindole derivative 11 was prepared by Sivajian and found to be 1/48 as active as LSD in studies with guinea pigs (38). Sivajian (38) also reported biological activities in the guinea pig for arecoline 12, 6-methylarecoline 13, and 5-phenyl-6-methylarecoline 14. These compounds were devoid of LSD-like activity in guinea pigs. D. V. Siva Sankar Molecular Investigations: Relations Between Molecular Structure and Psychobiological Activity / Molecular Aspects: Structure-Activity Relations 65–106 (70–71) LSD - A Total Study 1975 72-95447 978-0-9600290-3-7 PJD Publications Westbury, N.Y. https://www.samorini.it/doc1/alt_aut/sz/sankar-lsd-a-total-study.pdf#page=69 Sivadjian reported in 1970 (15) studies on twelve lysergic acid analogues. These included arecoline-HBr, Methyl-12-bromo-8,9-didehydro-2,3-beta-dihydro-6-methyl-10,11-secoergoline-8-carboxylate, and 1,2,5,6-tetrahydro-5-phenyl-1,6-dimethyldiethylnicotinamide-HCI. Of these compounds only the methyl-12-bromo-8,9-didehydro-2,3-beta-dihydro-6-methyl-10,11-secoergoline-8-carboxylate derivative showed some activity. It disrupted the conditioned avoidance response in guinea pigs into a disorderly reflex movement of varying duration. While acetyl LSD was quite active, the acetyl derivatives obtained by acetylation of the indole nitrogen of the compounds were usually less active.

Another notable derivative is 10,11-seco-LSD (UCD0121).
