Description
6-Maleimidocaproic acid is a maleimide-functionalised carboxylic acid reagent with CAS number 55750-53-3 and empirical formula C₁₀H₁₃NO₄. Its molar mass is 211,21 g/mol, making it a well-defined building block for bioconjugation and linker chemistry. Researchers commonly employ this compound in the preparation of thiol-reactive probes, protein-modification reagents and specialised biochemical intermediates. The product is offered from manufacturer Carl ROTH within the biochemicals range and is suited to synthetic organic and life-science applications where controlled maleimide reactivity is essential. Clear identity data (CAS, formula and molar mass) facilitate documentation and method transfer. The solid is intended for professional laboratory use in research and development settings that demand reliable maleimido-carboxylic acid intermediates for conjugation strategies and custom reagent synthesis.

Questions about 6-Maleimidocaproic acid, 50 g
What is this article?
6-Maleimidocaproic acid, 50 g is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Organic building blocks & synthesis reagents, inside Organic chemicals & synthesis reagents, in Lab chemicals.
A building block is an organic molecule bought to become part of a larger one. The structure, the CAS number and the purity decide it. A 95 percent reagent and a 99.9 percent reagent of the same name leave different impurities in the product. The functional groups are the reason it was chosen.
An organic chemical is built on carbon. In this category it is a building block or a reagent for making another molecule: a starting material, a coupling agent, a polymer, a PEG. Purity is a specification of which impurities remain. The structure, the CAS number and the grade decide whether two bottles are the same substance. Structures and properties are on PubChem. Nomenclature is IUPAC. Classification follows ECHA and the CLP Regulation.
