Psychoactive plants biological activity

It was soon apparent that this compilation would become unmanageably large. The first major trimming was the elimination of the compounds that were synthetic, and the limitation of the listing to those compounds that have been reported as plant products. These isoquinolines could play the dual role of serving not only as potential contributors to the action of psychoactive plants but also as prototypes for the synthesis of new materials that might themselves be biologically active.
