Monomethyl suberate(Cat No.:R016368)is a monoester derivative of suberic acid (octanedioic acid), featuring one free carboxylic acid group and one methyl ester group on an eight-carbon aliphatic dicarboxylic backbone. This bifunctional compound is commonly used as a chemical crosslinker, intermediate, or spacer in organic synthesis and polymer chemistry. Its combination of hydrophilic (acid) and lipophilic (ester) properties allows it to serve in modifying surfaces, linking biomolecules, or fine-tuning material flexibility. Monomethyl suberate is also explored in drug delivery systems and structure–activity relationship (SAR) studies for designing bioactive molecules and functionalized macromolecules.
