10-Aminodecanoic acid

10-Aminodecanoic acid is an alkane chain featuring terminal carboxylic acid and amino groups. This compound serves as a PROTAC linker in PROTAC synthesis and other conjugation applications. The amino group (NH2) can react with carboxylic acids, activated NHS esters, and carbonyls (ketones, aldehydes), while the terminal carboxylic acid can react with primary amines of activated NHS esters to form stable amide bonds.
