Description

D-Lysine HCl is an amino acid that is used as a dietary supplement for the treatment of L-lysine deficiency. It is a precursor to protein synthesis and has been shown to have an inhibitory effect on neuronal function. D-Lysine HCl can be synthesized from lysine by hydrolysis with hydrochloric acid in the presence of piperazine. This reaction produces dibenzoate and d-piperazine, which are then reacted with l-tartaric acid to form the final product. D-Lysine HCl is usually purified from this mixture by gel chromatography or ion exchange chromatography.
