NH-bis(PEG2-t-butyl ester)
This product is a multifunctional PEG-based linker with a central amine core and two PEG2 arms terminated in t-butyl esters. The PEG2 chains provide hydrophilicity and flexibility, while the t-butyl esters serve as acid-labile protecting groups for controlled deprotection and orthogonal conjugation strategies.
Key Features and Benefits:
-
Dual t-Butyl Esters: Acid-labile protection for controlled release of carboxyl groups.
-
Amine Core: Provides a branching scaffold for multifunctional design.
-
PEG2 Arms: Add solubility, flexibility, and reduced steric hindrance.
-
High Purity: Ensures reproducibility in synthetic and bioconjugation workflows.
-
Orthogonal Reactivity: Supports stepwise, multifunctional synthesis strategies.
Applications:
-
Bioconjugation: Enables controlled dual carboxyl release for biomolecule attachment.
-
Drug Delivery: PEGylated scaffold improves solubility and stability with tunable release.
-
Surface Functionalization: Functionalizes nanoparticles, hydrogels, and polymers with dual handles.
-
Synthetic Chemistry: Intermediate for constructing branched or multifunctional PEG scaffolds.
Storage and Handling:
-
Storage: Store at –20 °C in a sealed, light-protected container.
-
Handling: Use anhydrous solvents (e.g., DMF, DMSO) to preserve ester stability until deprotection.
This product offers dual acid-labile esters on a PEGylated amine scaffold, making it an especially versatile reagent for orthogonal synthesis, bioconjugation, and advanced material applications.
