General description

Glycine methyl ester hydrochloride, also known as methyl glycinate hydrochloride, is a derivative of glycine, used in the preparation of amino acids and organic compounds.

Application

Glycine methyl ester hydrochloride is used to synthesize cyclophosphazene compounds with amino acid esters as side groups. Additionally, it can be utilized to synthesize peptides in aqueous medium, which makes it a green method for peptide formation.
