Description
L-beta-Homotryptophan hydrochloride is a specialised amino acid derivative supplied at a minimum purity of 95 % for biochemical and synthetic research. It is defined by CAS number 339994-86-4 and the empirical formula C₁₂H₁₄N₂O₂·HCl, with a molar mass of 254,71 g/mol. The hydrochloride salt form supports handling and dissolution in typical laboratory workflows involving non-proteinogenic amino acids and peptide-related building blocks. This material is As a β-homotryptophan analogue, it provides the characteristic indole side-chain motif within an extended backbone framework that is of interest in structure–activity and peptide-mimetic studies. The product is available from manufacturer Carl ROTH as part of a focused biochemical range. Clear identity data—CAS registry number, molecular formula and molar mass—support documentation, inventory control and experimental reproducibility. Laboratories can integrate into screening, intermediate preparation or analytical comparison tasks without committing to larger bulk quantities.

Questions about L-beta-Homotryptophan hydrochloride, min. 95 %, 250 mg
What is this article?
L-beta-Homotryptophan hydrochloride, min. 95 %, 250 mg is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Click chemistry, bioconjugation & synthesis reagents, inside Biochemicals & reagents, in Life Science & Microbiology.
Click and bioconjugation reagents join two molecules under mild conditions, often an azide to an alkyne, or an NHS ester to an amine. The linker length and the reactive group are the specification. They are small bottles of a reactive compound, and moisture often ruins them.
A biochemical is a molecule of life, sold as a reagent: an amino acid, a sugar, a nucleotide, a lipid, an enzyme, an antibiotic. The difference from a bulk chemical is that the use is a biological one, and the impurities that matter are the ones that change that use. An enzyme is specified by activity, not only by mass. An antibiotic is specified by potency. Papers are on PubMed. Structures are on PubChem. Strains and lines that consume these reagents are at ATCC.
