Abstract
INTEREST in the crystal structures of simple peptides has increased considerably during recent years on account of progress made in the direct investigation of protein structure. Glycyl-L-alanine hydrobromide has been prepared in these laboratories and examined by X-ray methods. The free dipeptide was prepared by the N-carbobenzoxy method1 and then converted into the hydrobromide which crystallized readily from aqueous solution.
