A method for the stepwisedegradation of the pyridine ring of nicotine has been developedwhich involves the oxidation of nicotine to nicotinic acid, the biological conversion of nicotinic acid to ricinine, and the chemical degradation of ricinine. Using this degradation method it has been shown that glycerol is incorporated without randomization into carbons 4, 5, and 6 of the pyridine ring of nicotine. This degradation method has alsobeen used to confirm the mechanism of fusion of the pyridine ring of nicotinic acid with the pyrrolidine ring during nicotine biosynthesis, previously proposed by Dawson, et
