:(-)-Nicotine bitartrate
Description:
(-)-Nicotine bitartrate is a salt formed from nicotine, a well-known alkaloid primarily found in tobacco plants, and tartaric acid. This compound is characterized by its chiral nature, as nicotine exists in two enantiomeric forms, with the (-)-isomer being the more biologically active form. It typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline powder and is soluble in water, which enhances its utility in various applications, including pharmacology and research. (-)-Nicotine bitartrate is often used in studies related to nicotine's effects on the nervous system, as it retains the pharmacological properties of nicotine while providing a stable form for experimental use. The compound exhibits stimulant effects, primarily acting on nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, which can influence neurotransmitter release and affect mood, cognition, and addiction pathways. Safety and handling precautions are essential, as nicotine is toxic in high doses. Overall, (-)-Nicotine bitartrate serves as an important compound in both scientific research and potential therapeutic applications.
