Certainly not a 1st year Chem question, but I'm trying to find out if a particular amino acid derivative (N-acetylcysteine amide) can chelate the cuprous ion in an aqueous environment.

Yer right. It's not a 1st year Chem question.
Sorry, I only got thru 1st year Chem (with a
very low grade).

Did it take you three years?

from my consultant

From what I know it should - the sulfur on the amino acid should be the
same as plain cysteine. The nitrogen probably won't be as good as the
free form. But I'm pulling this out of my assfuloftricks. Let me do a
lil search.
What's the application and why this particular compound?

Yeah that's what I figured.

The amine form of this chelates Cu+1 well, but is far less permeable across a cellular membrane. Hmmm...

Thx down_hill.
