Basic properties of pharmaceutical grade arginine
1. Basic physical and chemical properties
chemical structureArginine belongs to the alpha group-Amino acid, structural formula:R-CH(NH₂)-COOHThe side chain contains guanidine groups(-C(NH₂)₂⁺)Endow it with strong alkalinity(pKₐ=12.48).
physical properties:
Appearance: White diamond shaped crystals (containing two molecules of crystal water) or monoclinic plate-like crystals (anhydrous).
Melting point:223℃ (including crystal water),244℃ (anhydrous decomposition).
Boiling point:409.1℃(760 mmHg).
Solubility: Easily soluble in water(50Reached at ℃400 g/L)Slightly soluble in ethanol, insoluble in ethanol.
optical rotation:L-Arginine specific rotation[alpha]Dfor+12.5° (aqueous solution).
2. chemical properties
Gender and isoelectric pointArginine is a zwitterionic molecule with an isoelectric point(pI)For10.76In strong acid(pH<1)Ammonium cation in China(NH₄⁺)Existence, strong alkali(pH>13)Carboxylate anion in China(COO⁻)Existence.
Reaction characteristics:
Amino reactionGenerate nitrogen gas with nitrous acid (measured for amino groups using the Van Slack method); Nucleophilic addition with formaldehyde to generate imine.
Carboxyl reactionCan be esterified (such as forming amino acid esters with alcohols) or acylated (with...)PCl₅Reaction).
color reactionGenerate a blue purple compound with hydrated indene ketone for identification.
3. Biochemical characteristics
physiological function:
Urea cycleParticipate in ammonia metabolism and convert it into urea for excretion.
Nitric oxide(NO)SynthesisGuanidine isNOPrecursors regulate vasodilation and blood pressure.
protein synthesisAs a coding amino acid (codon)CGU/CGCParticipate in translation.
