Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The Brønsted basicity of morphine is to be stated. The structure of with its conjugate acid is to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

Alkaloids are natural organic compounds that contain nitrogen in them. Alkaloids originated from plants. Alkaloids can act as a beneficial drug or can act as a poison. Morphine is an alkaloid. It is extracted from plants. Morphine has a direct action on the central nervous system. Morphine is used as an effective painkiller.
