Properties
Description
N-Boc-PEG2-alcohol is a short PEG linker featuring a Boc-protected amino group and a terminal hydroxyl group. The Boc group provides acid-labile protection, enabling controlled deprotection to expose the amine functionality. The hydroxyl group serves as a versatile site for further chemical modifications, and the PEG2 spacer enhances hydrophilicity and solubility in aqueous environments.
