Fmoc-NH-PEG5-CH2COOH
This product is a heterobifunctional PEG linker containing an Fmoc-protected amine, a PEG5 spacer, and a terminal carboxylic acid. It specifically enables orthogonal deprotection, amide coupling, and conjugation, offering solubility, medium flexibility, and versatile reactivity.
Key Features and Benefits
-
Fmoc-Protected Amine: Provides orthogonal protection for staged deprotection and selective conjugation.
-
Carboxylic Acid: Couples efficiently with primary amines to form stable amide bonds.
-
PEG5 Spacer: Improves solubility and provides moderate chain length.
-
Dual Reactivity: Combines protected amine functionality with carboxyl chemistry.
-
High Purity: Ensures reproducibility in synthesis and conjugation workflows.
Applications
-
Bioconjugation: Links PEG scaffolds to biomolecules with controlled reactivity.
-
Probe Development: Builds multifunctional probes with orthogonal handles.
-
Drug Delivery: Provides PEG scaffolds with solubility and dual handles.
-
Organic Synthesis: Serves as an intermediate in linker and scaffold 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 cleavage.
