Ald-benzyl-PEG5-CH2 tBu-ester
Ald-benzyl-PEG5-CH2 tBu-ester is a high-purity heterobifunctional PEG linker with an aldehyde for oxime/hydrazone ligation and a t-butyl ester–protected acid for orthogonal conjugation. The PEG5 spacer enhances solubility, flexibility, and accessibility, enabling efficient bioconjugation in aqueous and organic systems. The acid-labile t-butyl ester allows controlled deprotection for stepwise functionalization, making it especially ideal for precision linker design in drug delivery, diagnostics, and advanced biomaterials.
