| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Chemical Properties]
Blue, triboluminescent crystals. Slightly soluble in water and alcohol; insoluble in hydrocarbons, ethers, and ketones. | [General Description]
Occurs as monohydrate and as dihydrate. The monohydrate is long deep-blue needles. The dihydrate is light blue powdery crystals. | [Reactivity Profile]
Salts, basic, such as COPPER GLYCINATE(13479-54-4), are generally soluble in water. The resulting solutions contain moderate concentrations of hydroxide ions and have pH's greater than 7.0. They react as bases to neutralize acids. These neutralizations generate heat, but less or far less than is generated by neutralization of the bases in reactivity group 10 (Bases) and the neutralization of amines. They usually do not react as either oxidizing agents or reducing agents but such behavior is not impossible. | [Air & Water Reactions]
Water soluble. | [Health Hazard]
INHALATION: Inhalation of dust may cause nasal congestion. EYES: Conjunctivitis and edema of eyelids. SKIN: Irritation. INGESTION: Vomiting caused by local irritant and astringent action of ionic copper on stomach and bowel. | [benefits]
Copper glycinate has the following benefits: Helps activate enzymes important to energy metabolism Assists in the formation of hemoglobin and red blood cells Supports protein metabolism and phospholipid synthesis Available in copper citrate with enhanced bioavailability and copper glycinate forms Made with high-quality vegan ingredients backed by verifiable science | [Flammability and Explosibility]
Notclassified | [Side effects]
Too much copper can cause nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, headache, dizziness, weakness, diarrhea, and a metallic taste in the mouth. Copper toxicity is rare but can cause heart problems, jaundice, coma, even death. DO NOT use copper supplements if you have diarrhea.
| [Synthesis]
Copper glycinate is an amino acid salt of copper, which can be produced by reacting 0.01 mol/L CuSO4 and 0.02 mol/L glycine under weakly alkaline conditions at room temperature, adding ethanol to precipitate and then recrystallizing with hot water, add |
