LSD skeletal formula beside ball-and-stick and space-filling models

A composite rendering of lysergic acid diethylamide, C20H25N3O, showing the two-dimensional skeletal formula alongside three-dimensional ball-and-stick and space-filling models. The geometry follows an X-ray crystallographic determination of the related salt LSD o-iodobenzoate monohydrate published in Molecular Pharmacology in 1973. Carbon is grey-black, hydrogen white, nitrogen blue and oxygen red.
