Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The chirality centre in hyoscyamine involved in the racemization and the three dimensional structure of hyoscyamine is to be written.

Concept introduction:

▸ The chemical formula of atropine is C17H23NO3.

▸ On hydrolysis of atropine, tropine and tropic acid are formed, which indicates that it is an ester.

▸ It is optically inactive. Atropine is a racemate form of hyoscyamine. It is insoluble in ether but easily soluble in chloroform and alcohol and also sparingly soluble in water.
