Description
t-Boc-N-amido-PEG4-amine is a PEG linker featuring a Boc-protected amino group along with a four-unit PEG spacer. The Boc protection ensures stability during synthesis, while the free amino group remains available for conjugation reactions.
Applications
t-Boc-N-amido-PEG4-amine can be used in bioconjugation, drug delivery, and materials science applications. The free amino group is reactive with various functional groups including carboxylic acids, activated NHS esters, and carbonyls, enabling the synthesis of diverse bioconjugates. After deprotection of the Boc group under mild acidic conditions, the free amino group becomes available for further conjugation reactions or modifications, offering versatility in designing functionalized PEG-based compounds for specific research or industrial purposes.
