Description
Methylamino-PEG2-acid HCl salt is a PEG linker featuring a carboxylic acid group and a methylamine group, provided as a hydrochloride salt for enhanced stability. The carboxylic acid enables coupling with primary amines using activators like EDC or HATU to form stable amide bonds. The methylamine group reacts with carboxylic acids and carbonyl compounds. The PEG2 spacer enhances solubility in aqueous environments.
Applications
Methylamino-PEG2-acid HCl salt is utilized in research for developing multifunctional linkers, bioconjugates, and hydrophilic compounds. Its dual reactive groups allow for versatile covalent modifications, making it suitable for surface engineering, molecular interactions studies, and constructing amide-linked biomaterials in experimental applications.
