Get Glycinato

In the reaction between copper(II) acetate monohydrate and glycine, the dissociation of glycine molecule produces glycinate anion, NH2CH2COO-(gly), which is a bidentate ligand and easily replaces the monodentate acetate ion, CH3COO- in the copper complex.

It is involved in protein metabolism, the production of RNA, and the synthesis of phospholipids used in the formation of myelin sheaths.

Copper Glycinate (II) is also widely used for parenteral supplementation in animals, being a source of copper replacement. There are also complexes that are used in paint pigments, color production in glass and precious stones.

In the reaction between copper(II) acetate monohydrate and glycine, the dissociation of glycine molecule produces glycinate anion, NH2CH2COO-(gly), which is a bidentate ligand and easily replaces the monodentate acetate ion, CH3COO- in the copper complex.

The invention provides a new simpler method for synthesizing copper glycinate, which comprises the following steps: stirring to chelate cupric subcarbonate powder and glycine solution in a mol ratio of 1:4.5 in a water bath at 65-70 DEG C for 30 minutes, adding ethanol, cooling to crystallize, and centrifuging to ...

Preparation of Bis(glycinato)copper(II) Monohydrate (first isomer): Copper(II) acetate monohydrate (2.0 g) is dissolved in 25 mL of hot distilled water. Then 25 mL of ethyl alcohol is added and the solution is kept hot. Dissolve 1.5 g of glycine in 25 mL of hot water.

A: Copper bisglycinate is the same as copper glycinate. Copper bisglycinate is the more accurate way to describe this compound, which is copper attached to two glycine molecules (bis = 2).

Bis(glycinato)copper(II) is typically prepared from the reaction of copper(II) acetate in aqueous ethanol with glycine: Cu(OAc)2 + 2 H2NCH2COOH + x H2O → [Cu(H2NCH2COO)2(H2O)x] + 2 AcOH, x = 0 or 1.
