THP-PEG8-Tos
This product is a heterobifunctional PEG linker featuring a tetrahydropyranyl (THP) protecting group and a tosyl (p-toluenesulfonyl) leaving group. The PEG8 spacer provides hydrophilicity and extended flexibility, making it especially useful for stepwise synthesis, bioconjugation, and advanced material design.
Key Features and Benefits:
-
THP Group: Provides acid-labile protection for controlled deprotection.
-
Tosyl Group: Serves as an efficient leaving group for substitution reactions.
-
PEG8 Spacer: Enhances solubility, flexibility, and steric accessibility.
-
Orthogonal Reactivity: Supports stepwise and multifunctional synthesis.
-
High Purity: Ensures reproducibility in sensitive workflows.
Applications:
-
Bioconjugation: Introduces orthogonal reactive handles to biomolecules.
-
Drug Delivery: Provides PEGylated scaffolds with controlled release options.
-
Probe Development: Builds protected intermediates for diagnostics and imaging.
-
Synthetic Chemistry: Useful in linker and polymer synthesis.
Storage and Handling:
-
Storage: Store at –20 °C in a sealed, moisture- and light-protected container.
-
Handling: Use anhydrous solvents (e.g., DMF, DMSO); avoid premature THP cleavage.
This product integrates a THP-protected hydroxyl and a tosyl leaving group in a PEG8 scaffold, specifically offering solubility, spacing, and orthogonal control for advanced conjugation strategies.
