Copper Bisglycinate

Copper(II) bisglycinate

Copper bisglycinate, chemically copper(II) bisglycinate (CAS 13479-54-4, formula C4H8CuN2O4, molecular weight 211.66), is an amino-acid chelate in which a single copper(II) ion is coordinated by two glycine ligands. It is produced synthetically by reacting a copper(II) source with glycine to a fully-reacted chelate, standardized to roughly 29 to 30% elemental copper. Unlike the inorganic copper sulfate and copper oxide or the organic-acid salts copper gluconate and copper citrate, here the metal is held within the glycine ligand rather than existing as a simple ionic salt, giving a defined chelated structure at an intermediate elemental load. It is supplied as a fine powder and manufactured into capsules, tablets and powder blends.
