Procedure

The copper hydroxide precipitate was then placed into a beaker provided with a reflux condenser and 15 grams (0.2 Mole) of glycine was added. 100 ml of ethanol was thereafter added and the mixture stirred and boiled at atmospheric pressure for 5 hours. The reaction mixture was then cooled and filtered yielding 21.2 grams of copper glycinate in the form of a fine blue powder.
