Ladenburg isolated hyoscine, also known as scopolamine for the first time in 1880.
It’s an alkaloid that a chemist called Albert Ladenburg first isolated from the nightshade plant Scopolia carniolica in 1880. This plant was itself named after an Italian naturalist, Antonio Scopoli, and so the new molecule was called scopolamine.
Antonio Scopoli = Scopolamine
