Summary
-
1.
The influence of the temperature, the concentration of the reactants, and the amount of alkali on the reaction of the copper complex of glycine with acetaldehyde has been studied.The optimum conditions for carrying out the reaction have been found: ratio of alkali to glycinate of 2;10, temperature 55° C, reaction time 6 hr, excess of acetaldehyde, methanol as solvent.

2.
The copper complex of threonine is more stable in an alkaline medium than the complex of allothreonine. The decomposition of the complex of the allo form is accompanied by its partial conversion into the threo form.
