Properties
Description
Palmitamide-PEG2-amide-PEG2-acid is a hybrid compound featuring a 16-carbon palmitamide chain, a dual PEG2 spacer, and a terminal carboxylic acid group. The hydrophobic palmitamide tail facilitates lipid interactions, while the hydrophilic PEG linker enhances solubility in aqueous environments. The carboxylic acid group enables reactivity with amines to form stable amide bonds using activators like EDC or HATU.
