Evidence of Isomerization in the Michael-Type Thiol-Maleimide Addition: Click Reaction between L-Cysteine and 6-Maleimidehexanoic Acid

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...
