Azido-PEG5-amine
This product is a heterobifunctional PEG linker containing a terminal azide group, a PEG5 spacer, and a primary amine. It specifically enables click chemistry with alkynes and amide coupling, offering solubility, flexibility, and dual reactivity.
Key Features and Benefits
-
Azide Group: Reacts with alkynes via CuAAC or SPAAC click chemistry.
-
Primary Amine: Couples with carboxyls, NHS esters, or activated linkers.
-
PEG5 Spacer: Provides solubility and medium chain length.
-
Dual Reactivity: Combines azide click chemistry with amine conjugation.
-
High Purity: Ensures reproducibility in bioconjugation and synthesis workflows.
Applications
-
Bioconjugation: Links azide- and amine-reactive biomolecules.
-
Probe Development: Builds multifunctional probes with dual handles.
-
Drug Delivery: Provides PEG scaffolds with orthogonal reactivity.
-
Material Science: Functionalizes nanoparticles, surfaces, and polymers with dual 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 prolonged moisture exposure.
