A crystalline alkaloid compound found in peyote cactus with psychoactive properties.
From Anhalonium (peyote genus) + chemical suffix '-idine'. Isolated and named by chemists in the 1890s as they systematically analyzed peyote's chemical components.
Scientists literally went through peyote and gave chemical names to every active ingredient they found—anhalonidine is one of the lesser-known ones that doesn't get as much attention as mescaline!
