Does anyone know the form scopolamine occures in the plant datura?
A base, hydrobromide, hydrochloride or mythelnitrate? Unless i completly read that solubility artical wrong...

Also i was unable to come across a complete list of a chemical composition of the plant, if anyone can reference a site or make a list off the top of their head it would be greatly apreciated. For sep purposes. Lots of unwanted nuerotoxins floating around.

One last thing...any methods to bounce back and forth between the base, hydros and methyl form?
 
In a biological system alkaloids tend to be in solution, so it's misleading to say they are a set, ionic form.

Depending on the pH in the cell they may exist as the free base, or as the ionised form with a variety of counterions in the same solution.
