Properties
Description
Hydroxy-PEG6-t-butyl ester is a PEG linker featuring a terminal hydroxyl group and a t-butyl-protected carboxyl group. The PEG6 chain enhances hydrophilicity and solubility in aqueous environments. The hydroxyl group allows for versatile chemical modifications, while the t-butyl ester provides acid-labile protection for controlled carboxylic acid activation.
