Ald-benzyl-amide-PEG3-propargyl
Ald-benzyl-amide-PEG3-propargyl is a high-purity heterobifunctional PEG linker with an aldehyde group for oxime or hydrazone ligation and a terminal alkyne for copper-catalyzed azide–alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) click chemistry. The PEG3 spacer enhances solubility, provides flexibility, and reduces steric hindrance, enabling efficient bioconjugation in both aqueous and organic systems. This dual-reactive design allows orthogonal, stepwise assembly of multifunctional biomolecules, drug conjugates, and advanced materials.
