'''Tropane''' is a [[nitrogen]]ous [[bicyclic]] [[organic compound]]. It is mainly known for a group of [[alkaloid]]s derived from it (called [[tropane alkaloid]]s), which include, among others, [[atropine]] and [[cocaine]]. Both alkaloids contain [[tropinone]] from which tropane is a derivate. Tropane alkaloids occur in [[plant]]s of the families [[Erythroxylaceae]] (including [[coca]]) and [[Solanaceae]] (including [[Mandrake (plant)|mandrake]], [[henbane]], [[deadly nightshade]], [[datura]], [[potato]], [[tomato]]) .<ref>{{cite web | title=Atropine content of plants | work=USDA, ARS, National Genetic Resources Program.

8-Azabicyclo[3.2.1]octane (tropane without the 8-[[methyl group]]) is known as nortropane or nor-tropane.<br />
Condensation [[piperidine]] and [[pyrrolidine]] produce tropane.
