Product Description of Pseudotropine CAS#135-97-7
Pseudotropine, also named 3β-tropanol or PTO, belongs to tropane-type alkaloid derivatives and is a structural isomer of tropine. It can be naturally found in certain tropane alkaloid-containing plants. This off-white to white crystalline solid is soluble in common polar organic solvents and water.
Its special bicyclic amine skeleton provides favorable chemical reactivity for structural modification. Pseudotropine is a critical fine-chemical intermediate, mainly used for synthesizing new nicotinic-receptor-targeted agonist compounds and other tropane-based pharmaceutical molecules.
