Applications
Amino-PEG12-t-butyl ester can be used as a versatile tool for bioconjugation reactions in aqueous environments. Its amino group reacts with various functional groups including carboxylic acids, activated NHS esters, and carbonyls, enabling the conjugation of biomolecules for drug delivery, diagnostics, and biotechnology applications. Additionally, the t-butyl protected carboxyl group can be selectively deprotected under acidic conditions, enhancing its utility in controlled-release systems and surface functionalization.
