-
Azide Group: Reacts with alkynes through CuAAC or SPAAC click chemistry.
-
Dual NHS Esters: Couple efficiently with primary amines for stable amide bonds.
-
PEG4 Spacers: Provide solubility and reduce steric hindrance.
-
Multifunctional Design: Combines click chemistry with dual amine reactivity.
-
High Purity: Ensures reproducibility in complex conjugation workflows.
Applications
-
Bioconjugation: Links alkynes and amine-containing biomolecules in multifunctional assemblies.
-
Probe Development: Builds tri-functional probes for diagnostics and imaging.
-
Drug Delivery: Provides scaffolds for controlled, multi-point conjugation.
-
Material Science: Functionalizes polymers and nanoparticles with orthogonal handles.
Storage and Handling
-
Storage: Keep at –20 °C in a sealed, light- and moisture-protected container.
-
Handling: Use anhydrous solvents such as DMF or DMSO to preserve reactivity.
