Description
Azide-PEG5-t-butyl ester is a click chemistry reagent that features an azide group (N3) capable of reacting with alkynes, BCN, and DBCO through click chemistry processes to form stable triazole linkages.
Applications
It can be employed in the synthesis of nanoparticles or liposomes for controlled drug release. In materials science, it can be used to modify the surface of materials to improve their biocompatibility and functionality. The PEG chain helps to increase the hydrophilicity and reduce non-specific interactions.
