Procedure

Applicants have cost-effectively synthesized Beta Alanine Nitrate by combining nitric acid and Beta Alanine, mixing with water, and leaving to crystallize. Further nitratization can take place, yielding Beta Alanine Dinitrate or Beta Alanine Trinitrate. An alternative implementation comprises using Nitrous Acid (HNO2) instead of Nitric Acid (HNO3), thus yielding Beta Alanine Nitrite. Beta Alanine Nitrite has the same effects as Beta Alanine Nitrate, the only difference being that it requires one less step to yield Nitric Oxide (NO—). Mixed salts may also be used, such as in the non-limiting example of Beta Alanine Nitrate-Orotate.
