N-Acetylglycine (NAGly) is a white to light beige crystalline powder. It is moderately soluble in alcohol and slightly soluble in , glacial acetic acid. Practically insoluble in ether and benzene.As an important fine organic chemical intermediate, it is widely used in medicine, pesticide, chemical industry and other fields.
N-acetylglycine is used is in biological research of peptidomimetics. It is used as the blocking agent of the N-terminus to prepare unnatural and unusual amino acids and amino acid analogs as well as to modify peptides.
1.Food (replacing monosodium glutamate agent)
N-acetylglycine salts of the flavouring compositions have been found to be able to elicit umami taste. The food products that are concerned with the use of NAGly may be dehydrated products such as soups, snacks, culinary products such as powdered flavourings, intermediate moisture food such as spreadable pastes, sausages. The compounds may also be used in full moisture foods. Such compositions can replace, at least partially, monosodium glutamate in foodstuffs in which flavour enhancers are desired.
