Glutaurine (CAS NO.: ), with its systematic name of L-, N-(2-sulfoethyl)-, could be produced through many synthetic methods.

Following is one of the reaction routes:

N-carbobenzyloxy-L-glutamic acid (I) is converted to the anhydride (II). Next, compound (II) could react with benzyl alcohol to produce a mixture of half esters from which the halt ester (III) is isolated as the dicyclohexylamine salt. (III) is esterified with 4-nitrophenol (IV) with the aid of dicyclohexyl carbodiimide and the product (V) is reacted with taurine (VI). Deprotection of the resulting peptide (VII) by catalytic debenzylation gives glutaurine.
