Exo-BCN-ald is a type of small molecule compound that contains several functional groups, including an exo-BCN group and an aldehyde group. The exo-BCN group is a highly reactive group that can undergo a range of chemical reactions, such as click chemistry, to form covalent bonds with other molecules or surfaces. This makes exo-BCN-ald a useful compound for bioconjugation and biomaterials applications.
The aldehyde group is also an important functional group in exo-BCN-ald, as it can react with amine groups to form stable Schiff bases or imine linkages. This enables the attachment of exo-BCN-ald to proteins or other molecules, allowing for the creation of bioconjugates or biomaterials.
In addition to its use in bioconjugation and biomaterials, exo-BCN-ald has potential applications in drug delivery and imaging. For example, exo-BCN-ald can be used as a linker molecule to attach drugs or imaging agents to targeting molecules such as antibodies or peptides, enabling targeted drug delivery or imaging of specific cells or tissues.
