Abstract

Disclosed are primary sterically hindered aminoacids for use as promoters for alkali metal salts in acid gas scrubbing. The primary sterically hindered aminoacid is selected from 1-amino-cyclopentane carboxylic acid and those represented by the formula: ##STR1## where R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are independently selected from CH.sub.3, C.sub.2 H.sub.5, and C.sub.3 H.sub.7 ; R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 are independently selected from hydrogen and CH.sub.3 ; and n is 0, 2, or 3.
