The product known as agropine from crown-gall tumour is shown to be indistinguishable in all of its properties ( physical, chemical, and biological) from N2-(1'-deoxy-D-mannitol-1'-yl)-L-glutamine, 1,2'-lactone, a C11H20N2O7 compound produced by cyclisation of N2-(1'-deoxy-D-mannitol-1'-yl)-L-glutamine.Two prior assignments of a C11H17NO7 formula obtained by high-resolution electronimpact mass spectrometry have been shown by field-desorption mass spectrometry to correspond to a fragment produced by the rapid loss of ammonia from the parent molecular species.
