Amino-ethyl-SS-PEG3-NHBoc CAS:2144777-87-5 is a chemical compound that is commonly used in bioconjugation and drug delivery applications. It is a linker molecule that consists of a polyethylene glycol (PEG) chain with an aminoethyl functional group, a disulfide linker, and a Boc-protected amine group. The PEG chain in Amino-ethyl-SS-PEG3-NHBoc imparts hydrophilicity and biocompatibility, making it an ideal tool for the design of biomaterials.
The aminoethyl functional group in Amino-ethyl-SS-PEG3-NHBoc can be used to facilitate the attachment of the linker molecule to a target molecule through amide bond formation. The disulfide linker can be used to introduce a reducible linkage between the target molecule and the PEG chain, which can be cleaved under reducing conditions to release the modified target molecule. The Boc-protected amine group can be used to introduce a primary amine functionality into the target molecule, which can be further modified to attach other functional groups or molecules.
Amino-ethyl-SS-PEG3-NHBoc is commonly used in the development of drug delivery systems, where it can be used to modify drug molecules, peptides, or proteins to increase their solubility, stability, and bioavailability. It can also be used to prepare bioconjugates for diagnostic and therapeutic applications. The versatility of the functional groups in Amino-ethyl-SS-PEG3-NHBoc makes it a valuable tool in the design of complex biomaterials and bioconjugates.
