Glycine Usage And Synthesis
Amino acids with the simplest structure Glycine is of the simplest structure in the 20 members of amino acid series, also known as amino acetate. It is a non-essential amino acid for the human body and contains both acidic and basic functional group inside its molecule. It exhibits as a strong electrolyte an aqueous solution, and has a large solubility in strong polar solvents but almost insoluble in non-polar solvents. Moreover, it also has a relative high melting point and boiling point. The adjustment of the pH of the aqueous solution can make glycine exhibit different molecular forms. The side chain of glycine contains only a hydrogen atom. Owing to another hydrogen atom connecting to the α-carbon atom, the glycine is not optical isomer. Since the side bond of glycine is very small, it can occupy space which can’t be occupied by other amino acids, such as those amino acids located within the collagen helix. At room temperature, it exhibits as white crystal or light yellow crystalline powder and has a unique sweet taste which can ease the taste of acid and alkaline taste, masking the bitter taste of saccharin in food and enhance the sweetness. However, if an excessive amount of glycine is absorbed by body, they not only can’t be totally absorbed by the body, but will also break the balance of the body's absorption of amino acids as well as affect the absorption of other kinds of amino acids, leading to nutrient imbalances and negatively affected health. The milk drink with glycine being the major raw material can easily does harm to the normal growth and development of young people and children. It has a density of 1.1607, melting point of 232 ~ 236 °C (decomposition). It is soluble in water but insoluble in alcohol and ether. It is capable of acting together with hydrochloric acid to form hydrochloride salt. It is presented in the muscles of animals. IT can be produced from the reaction between monochloro acetate and ammonium hydroxide as well as from the hydrolysis of gelation with further refining.
History of discovery Amino acids are organic acids containing an amino group and are the basic units of protein. They are generally colorless crystals with a relative high melting point (over 200 °C). It is soluble in water with amphiprotic ionization characteristics and can have sensitive colorimetric reaction with ninhydrin reagent. In 1820, glycine with the simplest structure was first discovered in a protein hydrolysis product. Until 1940, it has been found that there were about 20 kinds of amino acids in nature. They are necessary for the protein synthesis of both human and animal. They are mostly α- L-type amino acids. According to the different number of amino groups and carboxyl groups contained in amino acids, we classify amino acids into neutral amino acids (glycine, alanine, leucine, isoleucine, valine, cystine, cysteine, A methionine, threonine, serine, phenylalanine, tyrosine, tryptophan, proline and hydroxyproline, etc.) with the amino acid molecules containing only one amino group and a carboxyl group; acidic amino acid (glutamate, aspartate) which contains two carboxyl and one amino group; alkaline amino acids (lysine, arginine) which molecularly contains one carboxyl group and two amino groups; Histidine contains a nitrogen ring which exhibits weakly alkaline and thus also belonging to alkaline amino acids. Amino acids can be obtained both from protein hydrolysis and from chemical synthesis. Since the 1960s, industrial production mainly applied microbial fermentation, such as monosodium glutamate factory has been widely applied fermentation method for production of glutamate. In recent years, people has also applied petroleum hydrocarbons and other chemical products as raw materials of fermentation for production of amino acids.

Biosynthesis of glycine production In the late 1980s, Japan's Mitsubishi Corporation added the screened aerobic Agrobacterium, Brevibacterium, Corynebacterium genus to the medium containing carbon, nitrogen and inorganic nutrient solution for cultivation, and then applied this class of bacteria for converting ethanolamine to glycine in 25 ~ 45 °C and pH value from 4 to 9 and further applied concentration, neutralization ion exchange treatment to get the glycine product.
After entering the 1990s, there had been new progress on the production technology of glycine in foreign countries. The Nitto Chemical Industry Co (Japan) add cultured pseudomonas genus, casein bacteria genus, and alcaligenes genus and other species in 0.5% (mass fraction, dry weight) to the glycine amine-containing matrix for reaction of 45 h under 30 °C and pH value of 7.9 to 8.1 with almost all glycine amine being hydrolyzed into glycine with the conversion rate of 99%. Although biological methods are still in the research stage, however, owing to its high selectivity, non-pollution property, it will be a synthetic route with highly development potential.

Production method 1. Strecker method 
Have formaldehyde, sodium cyanide, ammonium chloride to react together, and then add acetic acid to precipitate out the methyleneamino acetonitrile; Add ethanol to the methyleneamino acetonitrile in the presence of sulfuric acid for decomposition to give aminoacetonitrile sulfate; use barium hydroxide to decompose this sulfates to obtain the barium glycine salt; then add sulfate to precipitate the barium, filter, and concentrate the filtrate, and the glycine crystals will be precipitated after cooling. 
HCHO [NaCN] → [NH4Cl] CH2 = N-CH2CN
CH2 = N-CH2CN [H2SO4] → [C2H5OH] H2NCH2CN • H1SO4
H2NCH2CN • H2SO4 [Ba (OH) 2] → (NH2CH2COO) 2Ba
(NH2CH2COO) 2Ba [H2SO4] → H2NCH2COOH
2. Acid amide Method
Mix the ammonia and ammonium bicarbonate and heat to 55 °C; add chloro acid aqueous solution to have reaction for 2h, and then heat to 80 °C to remove the residual ammonia, decolorize with charcoal and filter. Add 95% ethanol to the bleaching solution to precipitate out the glycine crystal, filtrate, wash with ethanol and dry to obtain the crude product; then dissolve in hot water, plus recrystallization from ethanol to obtain the finished glycine. ClCH2COOH [NH4HCO3] → [NH4OH] H2NCH2COOH
3. Extract the hydrolysis product of 25 kg waste silk, add 75 L of 6N industrial hydrochloric acid, heat at 110-120 °C for reflux for 22h, fully hydrolyze it until biuret reaction doesn’t further exhibit purple color. Before the end of hydrolysis reaction, add one volume of water plus 30-40 g of powdered activated carbon per liter, stir at 60 °C for 30min. Use polyester cloth to filter out impurities in the filter cylinder to obtain about 150 L of brown hydrolysis solution. Use activated carbon to adhere tyrosine in the hydrolysis solution and then use ion-exchange column separate out the glycine which can also separate out the alanine and serine. In the above production process, the monochloro acetic acid method is relatively simple. In fact, adding monochloro acid to the ammonia storage tank can generate glycine after a long time at room temperature. In the industrial production, take hexamine solution as the medium, have monochloro acid with a high concentration of ammonia reaction for 2 h at 70 °C through methanol (or ethanol) precipitation, refinement treatment to obtain a white crystallized glycine with this yield being 92- 94% and the product content being 99%. Material fixed consumption amount: monochloroacetic acid (95%) 1600kg/t, liquid ammonia 880kg/t, methenamine 350kg/t, and methanol (95%) 1100kg/t. In addition, take raw materials as gelatin, after the hydrolysis, refinement and filtering, drying can also used for preparing glycine.

Take formaldehyde as the raw material, have reaction together with sodium cyanide and ammonium chloride for synthesis of N- methylene amino acetonitrile, then has reaction with ethanol and sulfuric acid for synthesizing amino acetonitrile which further have reaction with barium hydroxide to synthesize barium amino acetic acid; add sulfuric acid to obtain the final product . This cost of this method is relatively low, but because of the relation of cyanide (or hydrocyanic acid), it is generally not applied domestically. It is synthesized from chloro acetic acid with adding excess ammonia to obtain. This method is mature with raw material easily available, and thus it is generally applied domestically.
5. The by-product ammonium chloride is removed by ion exchange resin method, or removed by using methanol to salt out the glycine.
6. Obtain by the single hydrolysis of Gelatin.
7. Bucherer method. The trioxane is added to the aqueous solution of ammonium carbonate and sodium nitrile; after the stirring and dissolution, have them reaction at room temperature after at 80-85 °C for 3h to obtain the hydantoin solution. Then simply add 30% NaOH aqueous solution for hydrolysis at 170 °C for 3h. Finally, with the treatment of the cation exchange resin, we obtain a glycine yield of 83.2%. 8. Phase Transfer Catalysis. Add 2 kg of aqueous ammonia into 1L of methanol, further add 0.3 kg of hexamethylene tetramine for six times until the solution becomes clear; add 2 L of methanol containing 10 kg dissolved chloroacetic acid 10kg with the temperature of the system rising significantly together with a large number of crystals being precipitated out upon 58 °C. When the temperature was dropped to room temperature and the clear up-layer supernatant, filter to obtain the crystals; the filtrate was placed two days with part of the crystals being precipitated out again. Add 2-3 fold the amount of deionized water to the above crude product; heat to 70-75 °C; add 2-fold the volumes of methanol after the dissolution and cool to precipitate the crystals. Dry at 70 °C for 2h to obtain the fine product with the yield being 68.6% and the purity being 99.6 %.

Production method 1. Strecker method 
Have formaldehyde, sodium cyanide, ammonium chloride to react together, and then add acetic acid to precipitate out the methyleneamino acetonitrile; Add ethanol to the methyleneamino acetonitrile in the presence of sulfuric acid for decomposition to give aminoacetonitrile sulfate; use barium hydroxide to decompose this sulfates to obtain the barium glycine salt; then add sulfate to precipitate the barium, filter, and concentrate the filtrate, and the glycine crystals will be precipitated after cooling. 
HCHO [NaCN] → [NH4Cl] CH2 = N-CH2CN
CH2 = N-CH2CN [H2SO4] → [C2H5OH] H2NCH2CN • H1SO4
H2NCH2CN • H2SO4 [Ba (OH) 2] → (NH2CH2COO) 2Ba
(NH2CH2COO) 2Ba [H2SO4] → H2NCH2COOH
2. Acid amide Method
Mix the ammonia and ammonium bicarbonate and heat to 55 °C; add chloro acid aqueous solution to have reaction for 2h, and then heat to 80 °C to remove the residual ammonia, decolorize with charcoal and filter. Add 95% ethanol to the bleaching solution to precipitate out the glycine crystal, filtrate, wash with ethanol and dry to obtain the crude product; then dissolve in hot water, plus recrystallization from ethanol to obtain the finished glycine. ClCH2COOH [NH4HCO3] → [NH4OH] H2NCH2COOH
3. Extract the hydrolysis product of 25 kg waste silk, add 75 L of 6N industrial hydrochloric acid, heat at 110-120 °C for reflux for 22h, fully hydrolyze it until biuret reaction doesn’t further exhibit purple color. Before the end of hydrolysis reaction, add one volume of water plus 30-40 g of powdered activated carbon per liter, stir at 60 °C for 30min. Use polyester cloth to filter out impurities in the filter cylinder to obtain about 150 L of brown hydrolysis solution. Use activated carbon to adhere tyrosine in the hydrolysis solution and then use ion-exchange column separate out the glycine which can also separate out the alanine and serine. In the above production process, the monochloro acetic acid method is relatively simple. In fact, adding monochloro acid to the ammonia storage tank can generate glycine after a long time at room temperature. In the industrial production, take hexamine solution as the medium, have monochloro acid with a high concentration of ammonia reaction for 2 h at 70 °C through methanol (or ethanol) precipitation, refinement treatment to obtain a white crystallized glycine with this yield being 92- 94% and the product content being 99%. Material fixed consumption amount: monochloroacetic acid (95%) 1600kg/t, liquid ammonia 880kg/t, methenamine 350kg/t, and methanol (95%) 1100kg/t. In addition, take raw materials as gelatin, after the hydrolysis, refinement and filtering, drying can also used for preparing glycine.
4. Take formaldehyde as the raw material, have reaction together with sodium cyanide and ammonium chloride for synthesis of N- methylene amino acetonitrile, then has reaction with ethanol and sulfuric acid for synthesizing amino acetonitrile which further have reaction with barium hydroxide to synthesize barium amino acetic acid; add sulfuric acid to obtain the final product . This cost of this method is relatively low, but because of the relation of cyanide (or hydrocyanic acid), it is generally not applied domestically. It is synthesized from chloro acetic acid with adding excess ammonia to obtain. This method is mature with raw material easily available, and thus it is generally applied domestically.
5. The by-product ammonium chloride is removed by ion exchange resin method, or removed by using methanol to salt out the glycine.
6. Obtain by the single hydrolysis of Gelatin.
7. Bucherer method. The trioxane is added to the aqueous solution of ammonium carbonate and sodium nitrile; after the stirring and dissolution, have them reaction at room temperature after at 80-85 °C for 3h to obtain the hydantoin solution. Then simply add 30% NaOH aqueous solution for hydrolysis at 170 °C for 3h. Finally, with the treatment of the cation exchange resin, we obtain a glycine yield of 83.2%. 8. Phase Transfer Catalysis. Add 2 kg of aqueous ammonia into 1L of methanol, further add 0.3 kg of hexamethylene tetramine for six times until the solution becomes clear; add 2 L of methanol containing 10 kg dissolved chloroacetic acid 10kg with the temperature of the system rising significantly together with a large number of crystals being precipitated out upon 58 °C. When the temperature was dropped to room temperature and the clear up-layer supernatant, filter to obtain the crystals; the filtrate was placed two days with part of the crystals being precipitated out again. Add 2-3 fold the amount of deionized water to the above crude product; heat to 70-75 °C; add 2-fold the volumes of methanol after the dissolution and cool to precipitate the crystals. Dry at 70 °C for 2h to obtain the fine product with the yield being 68.6% and the purity being 99.6 %.
9. chlorine acid ammoniation method
