Tetrazine-PEG6-Amino-Boc is a versatile reagent featuring a tetrazine group for rapid bioorthogonal IEDDA reactions with strained alkenes (e.g., TCO) and a Boc-protected amino group for controlled functionalization. The PEG6 spacer ensures enhanced solubility, flexibility, and reduced steric hindrance, making it ideal for bioconjugation, imaging, and therapeutic development.
