Trimethylglycine

Trimethylglycine is an amino acid derivative that occurs in plants. Trimethylglycine was the first betaine discovered; originally it was simply called betaine because, in the 19th century, it was discovered in sugar beets. It has a sweet and umami taste. Since then, many other betaines have been discovered, and the more specific name glycine betaine distinguishes this one. (Wikipedia).

Heterocycles Part 1: Furan, Thiophene, and Pyrrole

We've mentioned heterocycles before. They are cyclic molecules where one or more atoms in the ring are not carbon. Typically these involve oxygen, nitrogen, and sulfur. But there are so many different heterocycles. Different sizes, some aromatic and some not, and many of them are important
