Application

Glycinamide hydrochloride may be used in the synthesis of [M(glycinamidato-N,N′)(ptpy)2] where ptpy = 2-(p-tolyl)pyridinato) and M= Rh or Ir.
It may be used in the synthesis of the following glycinamide-based imidazolidinones:
  • (±)-2-(2-phenylpropyl)imidazolidin-4-one
  • (±)-2-(2,4,4-trimethylpentyl)imidazolidin-4-one
  • (±)-2-[(R)-2,6-dimethyl-5-heptenyl]imidazolidin-4-one
  • (5R,6S,9R)-6-isopropyl-9-methyl-1,4-diazaspiro[4.5]decan-2-one
  • (5S,6S,9R)-6-isopropyl-9-methyl-1,4-diazaspiro[4.5]decan-2-one
  • (±)-2-methyl-2-pentylimidazolidin-4-one
  • (±)-2-ethyl-2-(2-methylbutyl)imidazolidin-4-one
  • (±)-2-(undecan-2-yl)imidazolidin-4-one
  • (±)-2-pentylimidazolidin-4-one
  • 2-(2,4-dimethylcyclohex-3-en-1-yl)imidazolidin-4-one

As a model for mechanistic comparison with peptidyl transfer within the ribosome, the reaction of aqueous glycinamide with N-formylphenylalanine trifluoroethyl ester (fPhe-TFE) represents an improvement over earlier model reactions involving Tris. The acidity of trifluoroethanol (pKa 12.4) resembles that of
