endo-BCN-amido-Butanoic acid NHS ester
This product is a high-purity heterobifunctional linker with an endo-bicyclo[6.1.0]non-4-yne (endo-BCN) for rapid, copper-free SPAAC click chemistry and an NHS ester for efficient amine coupling. The butanoic acid amide spacer specifically provides optimal distance and flexibility, enhancing reactivity in both aqueous and organic systems. This reagent is especially ideal for orthogonal bioconjugation, site-specific labeling, and nanoparticle functionalization.
