Glycine is not widely used in foods for its nutritional value, except in infusions. Instead, glycine's role in food chemistry is as a flavorant. It is mildly sweet, and it counters the aftertaste of saccharine. It also has preservative properties, perhaps owing to its complexation to metal ions.
Glycine N-carboxyanhydride is an organic compound with the formula HNCH(CO) 2 O. A colorless solid, it is the product of phosgenation (reaction with phosgene) of glycine. [4] [5] Glycine N-carboxyanhydride is the simplest member of the amino acid N-carboxyanhydrides. It is also the parent of the 2,5-oxazolidinedione family of heterocycles.
Glycylglycine is the dipeptide of glycine, making it the simplest peptide. [1] The compound was first synthesized by Emil Fischer and Ernest Fourneau in 1901 by boiling 2,5-diketopiperazine (glycine anhydride) with hydrochloric acid. [2] Shaking with alkali [1] and other synthesis methods have been reported. [3]
Dimethylglycine (DMG) is a derivative of the amino acid glycine with the structural formula (CH 3) 2 NCH 2 COOH. It can be found in beans and liver, and has a sweet taste. It can be formed from trimethylglycine upon the loss of one of its methyl groups. It is also a byproduct of the metabolism of choline.
Glycin, or N-(4-hydroxyphenyl)glycine, is N-substituted p-aminophenol. It is a photographic developing agent used in classic black-and-white developer solutions. [2] It is not identical to, but derived from glycine, the proteinogenic amino acid. It is typically characterized as thin plates of white or silvery powder, although aged samples ...
Glycine methyl ester hydrochloride is the organic compound with the formula [CH 3 O 2 CCH 2 NH 3]Cl. A white, water-soluble solid, it is the hydrochloride of the methyl ester of the amino acid glycine .
Triglycine sulfate (TGS) is a chemical compound with a formula (NH 2 CH 2 COOH) 3 ·H 2 SO 4. The empirical formula of TGS does not represent the molecular structure, which contains protonated glycine moieties and sulfate ions. TGS with protons replaced by deuterium is called deuterated TGS or DTGS; alternatively, DTGS may refer to doped TGS.
