Abstract
Taurine is a constituent of the bile acids. Since the knowledge of the
crystal structure of taurine was important in understanding the biological
role of the molecule, structural work on this compound was carried out by
several authors1- 3. The last study3 has established that taurine possesses the zwitterion configuration with structural formula NHa+-CH2- CH2-S00- .
