Fmoc-NH-PEG2-CH2COOH
This product is a heterobifunctional PEG linker containing an Fmoc-protected amine, a PEG2 spacer, and a terminal carboxylic acid. It specifically enables orthogonal protection, amide coupling, and conjugation, offering solubility and compact flexibility.
Key Features and Benefits
-
Fmoc-Protected Amine: Allows selective deprotection for orthogonal conjugation strategies.
-
Carboxylic Acid: Couples efficiently with amines to form stable amide bonds.
-
PEG2 Spacer: Provides compact length and improves solubility.
-
Dual Reactivity: Combines protected amine chemistry with carboxyl conjugation.
-
High Purity: Ensures reproducibility in sensitive workflows.
Applications
-
Bioconjugation: Links biomolecules through orthogonal amine and carboxyl chemistry.
-
Probe Development: Builds multifunctional probes for diagnostics and research.
-
Drug Delivery: Provides PEG scaffolds with staged reactive handles.
-
Organic Synthesis: Serves as an intermediate for modular linker design.
Storage and Handling
-
Storage: Store at –20 °C in a sealed, light- and moisture-protected container.
-
Handling: Use anhydrous solvents such as DMF or DMSO; avoid premature hydrolysis or Fmoc removal.
