Product Information

• Name: N,N-Dibenzylglycine
• Synonyms: glycine, N,N-bis(phenylmethyl)-
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: N,N-Dibenzylglycine is a synthetic drug that is used as a diuretic and to treat congestive heart failure and edema. It is an analog of the amino acid glycine in which the hydrogen atom on the nitrogen atom has been replaced by a benzyl group. The chemical structure of this molecule provides for a natriuretic effect by increasing sodium excretion through the kidneys. N,N-Dibenzylglycine has been shown to inhibit skin cancer cells in mice and may have potential as a treatment for human cancers. This compound is made from ethyl esters and benzyl groups, which form an asymmetric synthesis reaction mechanism with cross-coupling. This drug also exhibits coordination geometry that allows it to bind to metal ions such as zinc or copper.
