Metabolite Identification
Common Name2-Methylhippuric acid
Description2-Methylhippuric acid, also known as N-(O-toluoyl)glycine or N-(methylbenzoyl)-glycine, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as hippuric acids. Hippuric acids are compounds containing hippuric acid, which consists of a of a benzoyl group linked to the N-terminal of a glycine. 2-Methylhippuric acid is possibly soluble (in water) and an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa).
