1.
A study was made of the alkylation of glycine with methyl acrylate in complexes of the transition metals of type: metal N-salicylideneglycinate. The C-alkylation of glycine is observed in Cu(II) complexes, while N-alkylation is observed in Ni(II) and Co(II) complexes.

2.
A study was made of the C-alkylation of glycine with methyl acrylate in Cu(II) complexes and it was established that the yield of glutamic acid depends on the nature of the catalyst and the experimental conditions. The C-alkylation of glycine can also be accomplished in copper pyruvylideneglycinate.
