3-Guanidinopropionic acid Usage And Synthesis

Description

Guanidinopropionic acid is a white crystal that dissolves in water and is a creatine analog. Guanidinopropionic acid is a kind of amino acid derivatives. It is an important chemical raw material and intermediate. It exists in the serum, brain, liver, kidney and urine of mammals. It can improve insulin sensitivity and selectively reduce Adipose tissue weight can treat and prevent metabolic disorders, hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinemia, insensitivity to blood insulin, hyperlipidemia, hyperamylase, obesity and other symptoms.

Chemical Properties

White solid

Uses

3-Guanidinopropionic Acid is an acidic guanidine derivative that has been shown to ameliorate hyperglycemia in animal models of noninsulin-dependent diabetes.

Definition

ChEBI: 3-guanidinopropanoic acid is a guanidine compound bearing an N-(2-carboxyethyl) substituent. It is a creatine analogue that has been found to decreases plasma glucose levels It has a role as a hypoglycemic agent. It derives from a propionic acid. It is a tautomer of a 3-guanidinopropanoic acid zwitterion.

Synthesis

Using thiourea |?-alanine as a raw material, guanidinopropionic acid is prepared by a two-step alkylation reaction of nucleophilic substituted amine, the content is greater than 99.0%, and the total yield is 76.2%. The process is low cost, mild conditions, and easy operation, simple and suitable for industrial production.
