DBCO-C3-alcohol
This product is a compact heterobifunctional linker featuring a dibenzocyclooctyne (DBCO) group, a three-carbon spacer, and a terminal hydroxyl group. The DBCO enables rapid, copper-free SPAAC click chemistry with azides, while the hydroxyl group serves as a versatile handle for further functionalization. The short C3 chain provides minimal spacing with good solubility, making this reagent especially suitable for compact bioconjugation strategies.
