“Structural Correlation between Apomorphine and LSD: Involvement of Dopamine as Well as Serotonin in the Actions of Hallucinogens”. 
J. Theor. Biol.. 1976;59:167-177.
Abstract
It is suggested that the action of LSD and other hallucinogens depends, not only on stimulation Of serotonin receptors, but also on stimulation of central dopamine receptors. Both pharmacological and structural-chemical evidence is presented to support the latter hypothesis. A structural correlation is also demonstrated between LSD and apomorphine, and the probable dopaminergic element in LSD is discussed.
