Biosynthesis of 50-36-2

I am not asking how to Biosynthesis this or saying that I will. I am only asking this question out of pure curiosity. If you where to biosynthesis 50-36-2 in a lab setting not derived from Coca leaves but derived from Tripione. Would the end product still have the same feeling, effect, and be the same as the product that is made in the jungles of South America using coca leaves by extracting the Alkaloids?

Your not the first person to ask this and you won't be the last.apparently your biosynthesised coke would be half as strong as extracted coke due to lab made coke being racemic and half of the racemate being inactive.this is according to the last time I seen this question and the answer given there.

Thank you for the reply. That is all I needed to know.

Sorry. This smells of SWIM and kewl.
Oblique drug references, for curiosity "of course" and two brand new users.

Asked and answered. I am closing this down.
If anyone feels that they must continue this discussion for legitimate reasons, then send a U2U to a mod to have it reopened.
