Procedure
Separately, in a single-necked, round bottomed flask, equipped with a magnetic stirrer, 7.87 g (60 mmol) of creatine is dissolved in 600 ml of water. To this is added 78 ml of 1M ammonium hydroxide with vigorous stirring, until heat production ceases. At this point the water is removed by evaporation to yield the carboxylate salt, ammonium 2-(1-methylguanidino)acetate, shown below.
