APN-BCN
This product is a heterobifunctional linker containing an aminopropyl nitrile (APN) group and a bicyclo[6.1.0]nonyne (BCN) moiety. It specifically enables copper-free click chemistry with azides and orthogonal conjugation through the APN group, offering compact design and dual reactivity.
Key Features and Benefits
-
BCN Group: Reacts rapidly with azides via SPAAC copper-free click chemistry.
-
APN Group: Provides an orthogonal functional handle for further derivatization.
-
Compact Scaffold: Minimizes steric hindrance while maintaining reactivity.
-
Dual Reactivity: Combines bioorthogonal click chemistry with nitrile-based modification.
-
High Purity: Ensures reproducibility in bioconjugation and synthetic workflows.
Applications
-
Bioconjugation: Links azide-modified biomolecules with orthogonal partners.
-
Probe Development: Builds multifunctional probes with bioorthogonal and APN handles.
-
Drug Delivery: Provides PEG-like scaffolds with click-ready and orthogonal reactivity.
-
Organic Synthesis: Serves as a versatile intermediate for modular linker design.
Storage and Handling
-
Storage: Store at –20 °C in a sealed, light- and moisture-protected container.
-
Handling: Use anhydrous solvents such as DMF or DMSO; avoid prolonged exposure to moisture.
