Description
5-Methoxy-L-tryptophan is a methoxy-substituted L-tryptophan derivative supplied at a minimum purity of 95 % for biochemical and synthetic research. Identified by CAS number 25197-96-0, it has the empirical formula C₁₂H₁₄N₂O₃ and a molar mass of 234,25 g/mol, giving a well-defined molecular profile for quantitative work. This amino-acid analogue is As an indole-containing building block, it supports studies of tryptophan metabolism, structure–activity relationships, and the preparation of specialised peptides or labelled intermediates. The material is provided by manufacturer Carl ROTH for laboratory use within chemical and life-science workflows. Clear identity data—CAS registry number, formula, and molar mass—help ensure traceability from receipt through documentation. Researchers working with substituted tryptophans can integrate this grade into screening libraries, analytical standards, or exploratory synthesis without unnecessary excess material.

Questions about 5-Methoxy-L-tryptophan, min. 95 %, 500 mg
What is this article?
5-Methoxy-L-tryptophan, min. 95 %, 500 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.
