Description

11-Aminoundecanoic Acid Ethyl Ester is a high-purity, long-chain amino acid ester that serves as a critical building block in advanced organic synthesis. Its bifunctional nature, featuring both a reactive amine and an ester group, makes it an exceptionally versatile intermediate for constructing complex molecular architectures. This compound is essential for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, polymer, and specialty chemical industries seeking to develop novel polyamides, peptide mimetics, and functionalized surfactants.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key synthon for the production of bioactive molecules, peptide analogs, and drug conjugates.
• Polymer Chemistry: Monomer for the synthesis of specialty polyamides (nylon-11 analogs), co-polyesters, and biodegradable polymers with tailored properties.
• Surface Science & Coatings: Precursor for manufacturing corrosion inhibitors, surfactants, and surface-modifying agents.
• Bioconjugation & Linker Chemistry: Used in the development of cleavable linkers for antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) and prodrug strategies.
• Lubricant & Fuel Additives: Intermediate in the synthesis of high-performance additives that improve stability and reduce wear.
• Research & Development: Valuable reagent in academic and industrial R&D for exploring new synthetic methodologies and material science.

Quality Control

Our 11-Aminoundecanoic Acid Ethyl Ester is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation (IR, NMR), to ensure it meets stringent specifications for research and industrial use. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance with your project requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); keep the container tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere if possible to maintain optimal purity and stability.
