(2,2-DIMETHYLPROPANOYL)AMINO]ACETIC ACID Usage And Synthesis

Uses

N-Pivaloylglycine is used in the biological study between dogs and rats. In a high dose toxicity study of pivalic acid (PA), PA caused skeletal muscle disorder in dog, and a significant increase of pivaloyl carnitine (PC) was observed in canine muscle, but not in rat muscle.
