[15 N]-Cholamine is an isotope tag for metabolomics research, because it possesses 2 important properties: an NMR active isotope and a permanent charge for MS sensitivity. Here, we present a scalable synthesis of [15 N]-cholamine.
Keywords: [15N]-cholamine bromide hydrobromide; carboxylic acid metabolites; chemo-selective tag; smart isotope tag.
