  2. Glycine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycine

    In the US, glycine is typically sold in two grades: United States Pharmacopeia ("USP"), and technical grade. USP grade sales account for approximately 80 to 85 percent of the U.S. market for glycine. If purity greater than the USP standard is needed, for example for intravenous injections, a more expensive pharmaceutical grade glycine can be ...

  3. Purine metabolism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purine_metabolism

    The amino acid glycine contributes all its carbon (2) and nitrogen (1) atoms, with additional nitrogen atoms from glutamine (2) and aspartic acid (1), and additional carbon atoms from formyl groups (2), which are transferred from the coenzyme tetrahydrofolate as 10-formyltetrahydrofolate, and a carbon atom from bicarbonate (1). Formyl groups ...

  4. Purine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purine

    Purine is a heterocyclic aromatic organic compound that consists of two rings (pyrimidine and imidazole) fused together.It is water-soluble.Purine also gives its name to the wider class of molecules, purines, which include substituted purines and their tautomers.

  5. Pyridine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyridine

    Pyridine can be prepared by dealkylation of alkylated pyridines, which are obtained as byproducts in the syntheses of other pyridines. The oxidative dealkylation is carried out either using air over vanadium(V) oxide catalyst, [67] by vapor-dealkylation on nickel-based catalyst, [68] [69] or hydrodealkylation with a silver- or platinum-based ...

  6. Glycylglycine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycylglycine

    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]

  7. Hygroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hygroscopy

    The unlaminated side of the cover absorbs more moisture than the laminated side and increases in area, causing a stress that curls the cover toward the laminated side. This is similar to the function of a thermostat's bimetallic strip. Inexpensive dial-type hygrometers make use of this principle using a coiled strip. Deliquescence is the ...

  8. Ionic liquid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ionic_liquid

    ILs can replace water as the electrolyte in metal-air batteries. ILs are attractive because of their low vapor pressure. Furthermore, ILs have an electrochemical window of up to six volts [54] (versus 1.23 for water) supporting more energy-dense metals. Energy densities from 900 to 1600 watt-hours per kilogram appear possible.
