What is AMINOACETONITRILE?
The Uses of AMINOACETONITRILE
Aminoacetonitrile is used in preparation of the Heterocyclic compounds and their medical applications.
Production Methods
Aminoacetonitrile is readily obtained as an aqueous solution by reacting an aqueous solution of glycolonitrile with liquid ammonia. The solution is stabilized by lowering the pH with small amounts of sulfuric acid. Aminoacetonitrile can also be isolated as the hydrochloride or sulfate. Aminoacetonitrile is usually further hydrolyzed by sodium hydroxide to the sodium salt of glycine, which in turn is neutralized to glycine.
