Propargyl-PEG2-acid
This product is a bifunctional PEG2 linker with a terminal propargyl (alkyne) and a carboxylic acid. The alkyne supports click chemistry with azides, while the acid enables amide bond formation, making it a compact and versatile reagent for bioconjugation and material science.
Key Features and Benefits:
-
Propargyl Group: Reactive handle for CuAAC or SPAAC click chemistry with azides.
-
Carboxylic Acid Group: Couples with primary amines to form stable amide linkages.
-
PEG2 Spacer: Improves solubility and flexibility while minimizing steric hindrance.
-
High Purity: Ensures reproducibility in sensitive conjugation workflows.
-
Dual Reactivity: Enables orthogonal or stepwise conjugation strategies.
Applications:
-
Click Chemistry: Bioorthogonal conjugation with azide-containing molecules.
-
Bioconjugation: Attach proteins, peptides, and small molecules.
-
Drug Delivery: Compact PEG linker to improve solubility and pharmacokinetics.
-
Surface Functionalization: Modify nanoparticles, hydrogels, or polymers.
Storage and Handling:
-
Storage: Store at –20 °C in a dry, light-protected container.
-
Handling: Use anhydrous solvents (e.g., DMSO, DMF) to maintain alkyne and acid reactivity.
This product combines alkyne click chemistry with carboxyl coupling in a short PEG spacer, specifically offering a compact tool for multifunctional conjugation strategies.
