Thioproline is a nonproteinogenic amino acid with the formula (CH₂SCH₂NHCH)CO₂H, although it crystallizes as the zwitterion (CH₂SCH₂NH+2CH)CO−2. It consists of a 1,3-thiazolidine ring ( (CH₂SCH₂NHCH₂)) substituted with a carboxylic acid. It is synthesized by reaction of formaldehyde and cysteine.^[3] It occurs in nature, but rarely.^[4] It forms a coordination complex with cobalt.^[5]
