Fragmentation patterns of tropane and tropidine derivatives have been shown to depend on the nature of the substituents. Unsaturation in the 6‐membered ring leads to preferential fragmentation of the two carbon bridge. When the 6‐membered ring is saturated and substituted with poor leaving groups (OH and CN) fragmentation of the 6‐membered ring is preferred.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
