Summary
Ergot alkaloids of the peptide type and their dihydro-derivatives can be converted reversibly in acid solution into isomeric compounds. They are characterised by the prefix ‘aci’, e.g. aci-ergotamine, aci-dihydro-ergotamine. The isomerisation takes place in the peptide part of the molecule.
