6-maleimidohexanoic acid N-hydroxysuccinimide ester has been used widely for preparation of enzyme immunoconjugates as a unique heterobifunctional cross-linking reagent. Its heterobifunctional reactivity is good, but its ester portion hydrolyzes easily in the presence of water. Several 6-maleimidohexanoic acid active esters (6-maleimidohexanoic acid 4-nitrophenyl ester, 6-maleimidohexanoic acid N-hydroxy-5-norbornene-endo-2,3-dicarboximide ester, and 6-maleimidohexanoic acid pentafluorophenyl ester) were prepared and their reactivity and stability in an aqueous media were tested. Of the synthetic esters, the pentafluorophenyl ester exhibited the highest reactivity and stability in aqueous media.

The reaction between L-cysteine (Cys) and 6-maleimidohexanoic acid (Mhx) in an aqueous medium at different levels of pH was analyzed via RP-HPLC, finding the presence of two reaction products throughout the evaluated pH range. By means of solid-phase extraction (SPE), it was possible to separate the products and obtain isolated profiles enriched up to 80%. The products were analyzed individually through mass spectrometry, DAD-HPLC, NMR H, C, and two-dimensional evidence of isomerization between the hydrogen atoms of the α-amino and the thiol group present in the cysteine.

Well-defined sustainable and recyclable thermoset elastomers derived from cellulose, fatty acid and furfural were successfully prepared via photoinduced metal-free ATRP and Diels-Alder (DA) reaction. Firstly, metal free ATRP was applied to prepare a range of thermoplastic cellulose graft copolymers with furfural groups. Then, a modified epoxidized soybean oil bearing 6-maleimidohexanoic group (ESOM) as a crosslinker was employed to perform DA reaction with furfural groups in these cellulose graft copolymers, by which the copolymer formed the dynamic crosslinked network and achieved the thermoset elastomers.

This study aims to synthesize and evaluate a new generation mucoadhesive polymer, 6-maleimidohexanoic acid-grafted chitosan; MHA-CS, for transmucosal drug delivery compared with a well-known mucoadhesive polymer, Cys-CS. The successful synthesis was confirmed by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. Gel permeation chromatography (GPC) was used to determine the molecular weight of the synthesized polymer.

Recombinant human serum albumin (HSA) conjugates of a 15-amino-acid truncated peptide YY (PYY) analogue were prepared using three heterobifunctional linkers [succinimidyl 4-[N-maleimidomethyl]cyclohexane-1-carboxylate (SMCC), 6-maleimidohexanoic acid N-hydroxysuccinimide ester (MHS), and N-[γ-maleimidobutyryloxy]sulfosuccinimide ester (GMBS)] in 2 synthetic steps involving (1) reaction of succinimidyl ester on linker with ε-amine of Lys2 on the peptide and (2) reaction of maleimide on peptide linker with free thiol of Cysteine 34 (Cys34) on albumin. In-process controls using ESI LC-MS were used to follow reactions and identify reaction products. Proteolytic digests of the conjugate revealed that peptide conjugation occurs at Cys34 on HSA.

A bio-ink for covalent deposition of thermostable, high affinity biotin-binding chimeric avidin onto sol-gel substrates was developed. The bio-ink was prepared from heterobifunctional crosslinker 6-maleimidohexanoic acid N-hydroxysuccinimide which was first reacted either with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane or 3-aminopropyldimethylethoxysilane to form silane linkers 6-maleimide-N-(3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl)hexanamide or -(ethoxydimethylsilyl)propyl)-hexanamide. C-terminal cysteine genetically engineered to chimeric avidin was reacted with the maleimide group of silane linker in methanol/PBS solution to form a suspension, which was printed on sol-gel modified PMMA film.
