Atropine Chemical formula

As noted from its formula (see Figure 14.2), scopolamine differs from atropine chemically in having an oxygen atom attached to the end carbon atoms of the scopine part of the molecule. Scopolamine is levorotatory but is readily racemized to the t/,/-form designated as atroscine.
