Azido-PEG36-t-butyl ester
This product is a heterobifunctional PEG linker with a terminal azide group for click chemistry and an acid-labile t-butyl ester for orthogonal protection. The long PEG36 chain provides exceptional solubility, flexibility, and spacing, making it especially valuable for bioconjugation, probe development, and drug delivery.
Key Features and Benefits:
-
Azide Group: Enables CuAAC or SPAAC click chemistry with alkynes.
-
t-Butyl Ester: Provides acid-labile protection for stepwise synthesis.
-
PEG36 Spacer: Offers excellent solubility, hydrophilicity, and extended flexibility.
-
Orthogonal Design: Supports controlled, multifunctional conjugation strategies.
-
High Purity: Ensures reproducibility in advanced workflows.
Applications:
-
Bioconjugation: Links biomolecules via azide–alkyne chemistry with protected functionality.
-
Drug Delivery: Provides PEGylated scaffolds with long circulation and tunable release.
-
Probe Development: Builds multifunctional probes for imaging and diagnostics.
-
Material Science: Functionalizes polymers and nanomaterials with long PEG arms.
Storage and Handling:
-
Storage: Store at –20 °C in a sealed, moisture- and light-protected container.
-
Handling: Use anhydrous solvents (e.g., DMF, DMSO); avoid premature ester cleavage.
This product combines click-ready azide functionality with acid-labile protection in a long PEG36 scaffold, specifically offering superior solubility and spacing for advanced conjugation strategies.
