Glycine N-carboxyanhydride is an organic compound with the formula HNCH(CO)₂O. A colorless solid, it is the product of phosgenation (reaction with phosgene) of glycine.^[4]^[5] Glycine N-carboxyanhydride is the simplest member of the amino acid N-carboxyanhydrides. It is also the parent of the 2,5-oxazolidinedione family of heterocycles.

Other derivatives[edit]

2,5-Oxazolidinediones can also be prepared from Schiff base derivatives of amino acids.^[6]
