endo-BCN-PEG2-amine
endo-BCN-PEG2-amine 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 a primary amine for efficient coupling with carboxylic acids or activated esters. The PEG2 spacer specifically enhances solubility, flexibility, and reduces steric hindrance, enabling high-yield conjugations in aqueous and organic systems. This reagent is especially ideal for bioorthogonal labeling, site-specific modification, and nanoparticle functionalization.
