t-Boc-N-Amido-PEG23-Azide (BocNH-PEG23-N₃)
This compound is a polyethylene glycol (PEG) derivative featuring a Boc-protected amine and an azide group, separated by a 23-unit PEG spacer. The azide group facilitates bioorthogonal conjugation via click chemistry, while the Boc group can be removed under mild acidic conditions to reveal a free amine for further functionalization. The extended PEG spacer enhances solubility and flexibility, making it valuable in bioconjugation, drug delivery, and materials science applications.
