TCO-PEG3-triethoxysilane (CAS 2250217-32-2) is a crosslinking reagent combining a trans-cyclooctene (TCO) group with a triethoxysilane moiety. The triethoxysilane end allows surface modifications on glass and silica materials through covalent bonding, while the TCO group supports rapid, bioorthogonal click reactions with tetrazine-containing compounds.
Key Features:
- Surface Modification: Functionalizes glass and silica surfaces, improving hydrophilicity and biocompatibility.
- Bioorthogonal Reactivity: Enables fast, catalyst-free reactions with tetrazines through inverse-electron demand Diels-Alder cycloaddition.
- Versatile Applications: Suitable for materials science, nanotechnology, and chemical biology.
