Nicotine was not invented. It is a naturally occurring chemical. Nicotine was first isolated from the tobacco plant in 1828 by chemists Posselt & Reimann; its chemical formula was described by Melsens in 1843, its structure was discovered by Garry Pinner in 1893, and it was first synthesized by A. Pictet and Crepieux in 1904.

Nicotine was first found in tobacco leaves. It is also found in several other nightshade family plants, but in microscopic quantities. These plants include tomato, green pepper, potato and eggplant.
