Properties
Description
3-(Azido-PEG5-amino)propanol functions as a PEG linker containing both an azide group and a terminal hydroxyl function. The azides are frequently utilized for copper-catalyzed click chemistry reactions involving alkynes such as DBCO and BCN leading to triazole linkages formation. Moreover, the hydroxyl group enables further derivatization of this compound while enhancing its solubility due to the hydrophilic nature of the PEG spacer.
