N-Mal-N-bis(PEG2-NH-Boc)
This product is a multifunctional PEG linker containing a maleimide group and two Boc-protected PEG2 amines. It specifically enables thiol conjugation and orthogonal amine chemistry after deprotection, offering solubility, compact design, and versatile reactivity.
Key Features and Benefits
-
Maleimide Group: Couples selectively with thiols to form stable thioether bonds.
-
Boc-Protected Amines: Allow orthogonal reactivity after controlled deprotection.
-
PEG2 Spacers: Enhance solubility while maintaining compact flexibility.
-
Multifunctional Design: Combines thiol reactivity with protected amine handles.
-
High Purity: Ensures reproducibility in sensitive workflows.
Applications
-
Bioconjugation: Links thiol-containing biomolecules with PEG scaffolds and amines.
-
Probe Development: Builds multifunctional probes with thiol and amine handles.
-
Drug Delivery: Provides PEG scaffolds for dual reactive and protected conjugation.
-
Organic Synthesis: Serves as an intermediate in modular linker chemistry.
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 Boc loss.
This product integrates thiol-reactive maleimide chemistry with Boc-protected amines in PEG2 scaffolds, specifically offering solubility and staged conjugation versatility.
