Strychnine Nitrate Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

Strychnine Nitrate is a highly toxic, colorless, bitter, crystalline alkaloid.The toxicity of strychnine nitrate is similar to that of strychnine alone.

Uses

Strychnine nitrate is a chemical compound that is made up of strychnine and nitric acid. It is used as a pesticide, particularly for killing small vertebrates such as birds and rodents.

General Description

Strychnine is is an poisonous alkaloid extract obtained from the dried ripe seeds of Strychnos nux vomica, a small tree of the East Indies. It is obtained as a white crystalline substance, having a very bitter acrid taste, and is used in research as a powerful neurostimulant.
