“…Scopolamine ( 23 , Scheme 6 ), also known as hyoscine, is a tropane alkaloid found in Solanaceae plants (Hashimoto & Yamada, 1986 ; Matsuda et al., 1991 ), It has been used to treat motion sickness, postoperative nausea, and vomiting for decades (Clissold & Heel, 1985 ). Hyoscyamine ( 21 ), the key biosynthetic precursor of scopolamine ( 23 ), is formed by the condensation of tropine and tropic acid, which are originated from l -ornithine and l -phenylalanine, respectively (Hashimoto & Yamada, 1986 , 1987 ; Zhang et al., 2004 ).…”
