Description
Propargyl-PEG14-t-butyl ester consists of a t-butyl-protected carboxyl group and a propargyl group, designed for copper-catalyzed click chemistry reactions. The t-butyl group is hydrolyzed in acidic conditions. The hydrophilic PEG units improve solubility in aqueous buffers.
Applications
Propargyl-PEG14-t-butyl ester is used in molecular biology and bioconjugation research, facilitating efficient copper-catalyzed click chemistry reactions with azide compounds to form a stable triazole linkage, making it ideal for modifying biomolecules.
