DBCO-PEG23-NH-Boc contains a DBCO functional group (dibenzocyclooctyne) attached to the end of a PEG chain, as well as a Boc-protected amino group at the other end.
The DBCO group is known for its ability to react with other molecules through copper-free click chemistry, making DBCO-PEG23-NH-Boc a valuable tool in the field of pharmaceutical research and development. This click reaction allows for the covalent attachment of therapeutic agents, such as proteins and peptides, to the PEG chain, leading to enhanced stability and bioactivity.
The Boc-protected amino group provides additional functionalization potential, as it can be selectively deprotected under mild conditions to reveal a free amino group, which can then be used for further modification or conjugation with other molecules.
