• LSD Lysergic acid diethylamide, first synthesized by Albert Hofmann in 1938 and accidentally ingested in 1943, which became the centerpiece of CIA behavioral control research from 1951 onward and spread from classified government programs into the American counterculture.
• Psilocybin Psychoactive compound isolated by Albert Hofmann at Sandoz in 1958 from the Psilocybe mushroom, which attracted CIA interest as an MKULTRA research subject alongside LSD.
