Bromo-PEG-alcohol

Bromo-PEG-alcohols are a class of compounds widely used in drug research and development due to their unique properties. They belong to the family of polyethylene glycol (PEG) derivatives that have been extensively explored for their potential applications in drug delivery and as pharmaceutical excipients. Bromo-PEG-alcohols contain functional groups such as a hydroxyl group and a bromine atom, which impart specific physicochemical properties that make them highly versatile in drug design.

The hydroxyl group present in Bromo-PEG-alcohols can form hydrogen bonds with biological molecules, enhancing their solubility and bioavailability. On the other hand, the bromine atom can be used for chemical modifications and labeling, enabling tracking and imaging of drug molecules. Additionally, the presence of the PEG moiety in Bromo-PEG-alcohols can increase the stability and half-life of drug molecules by reducing their clearance and immunogenicity.
