Like other psychedelics, users are encouraged to test their purchased substances prior to use. 1B-LSD reacts similarly to LSD-25 when exposed to both Ehrlich’s and Marquis reagent tests.
Ehrlich’s Reagent Test
Ehrlich’s reagent allows psychedelic users to test for the presence of indoles in their acquired substances, which rules out dangerous chemicals like 25I-NBOME that are sometimes substituted for and sold as LSD.13 Like LSD-25, 1B-LSD and other LSD analogs are all indoles - therefore, like LSD-25, 1B-LSD will turn purple with Ehrlich’s reagent test.14
It’s important to note that Ehrlich’s reagent binds to the part of the molecule where 1B-LSD’s butanoyl group is located, making it more difficult for the reagent to bind and react. Therefore, like 1P-LSD, 1B-LSD may take up to half an hour to react with Ehrlich’s reagent, and the result may be lighter in color than the Ehrlich’s reaction associated with LSD-25.15
