Morphology
nicotine = Nicot (opaque) = nicot + ine
Formed from the eponymic stem 'Nicot' plus the chemical suffix '-ine'; the stem is not a productive English morpheme, so learners cannot infer 'tobacco alkaloid'.
Etymology
Nicotine comes from the name of a French diplomat, Nicot, who helped bring the tobacco plant to France, and the plant was named Nicotiana after him. So nicotine is the chemical taken from that plant, which is why the name refers to the 'addictive' and 'poisonous' substance in tobacco.
