Norbornene-PEG4 acid
This high-purity heterobifunctional PEG linker features a norbornene group for rapid, catalyst-free bioorthogonal ligation via inverse electron-demand Diels–Alder (IEDDA) cycloaddition with tetrazines, and a terminal carboxylic acid for amide coupling to amines or other nucleophiles. The PEG4 spacer specifically enhances solubility, flexibility, and reduces steric hindrance, enabling efficient and orthogonal bioconjugation in both aqueous and organic systems.
