Cbz-N-Amido-PEG6-acid linker contains a CBZ-protected amino group and a terminal carboxylic acid. The terminal carboxylic acid readily reacts with primary and secondary amine under EDC, DCC, HATU or other amide coupling conditions to form a stable amide bond. The PEG spacer increases the aqueous solubility of the resulting compound. Cbz-amine can be deprotected by acidic conditions or hydrogenation.
Cbz-N-Amido-PEG6-acid is a polyethylene glycol (PEG) derivative that is used as a linker molecule to attach other molecules to it. It is an amino-PEG derivative, meaning it has an amino group attached to its PEG backbone, and it has a carboxyl group, which is a type of acid, attached to its end. This makes it useful for linking molecules together, as the carboxyl group can react with other molecules to form covalent bonds.
