Structure and properties of Nicotine 
1 - Structure of the molecule
Nicotine is also called 3-(1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinyl)pyridine according to the IUPACa nomenclature. It is a bicyclic compound with a  pyridine cycle and a pyrrolidine cycle. The molecule possesses an asymetric carbon and so exists in two enantiomeric compounds. In nature, nicotine only exists in the S shape, which is levogyre.

3 - IR analysis
On this spectrum, we can notice several peaks, which characterise the different chemical functions of nicotine: 
·    Around 3400 cm-1, we can see the large peak of water (it deals with a liquid film).· Between 2970 and 2780 cm-1 : C-H stretching.
· The peak at 1677 cm-1 : aromatic C=N double bond stretching.
· The peak at 1691 cm-1 : aromatic C=C double bond stretching.
· The peaks at 717 cm-1 and 904 cm-1 correspond to the out of plane bending of the C-H bond of the monosubstituted pyridinic cycle.
4 - Mass spectrum analysis
We can notice the molecular peak at 162 m/z. However, the biggest peak is at 84 m/z. It corresponds to the fragmentation of nicotine. It deals with the pyrrolidine cycle, which has this molecular weight. During the electronic bombardment, the nicotine was split between the two cycles.
