Nicotine

Synonyms: (S)-3-(1-Methylpyrrolidin-2-yl)pyridine, Nicotine, (S)-Nicotine, L-Nicotine, β-Pyridyl-α-N-methylpyrrolidine, Nicotine alkaloid

Nicotine is a naturally occurring alkaloid found primarily in the tobacco plant, Nicotiana tabacum, and to a lesser extent in other Solanaceae species. It is a chiral molecule, with the (S)-enantiomer being the predominant and biologically active form. This product is a high-purity synthetic or extracted grade, standardized to ≥99.0% (HPLC), suitable for pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and research applications.

As a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor agonist, nicotine is widely studied for its effects on cognitive function, mood, and metabolism. It serves as a key intermediate in the synthesis of nicotine replacement therapies (NRTs) and is used in smoking cessation products, insecticides, and as a reference standard in analytical laboratories.
