DBCO-PEG8-acid is an analog of DBCO-Acid with hydrophilic PEG linker and a DBCO group. The DBCO groups is commonly used for Click Chemistry reactions. The hydrophilic PEG chain allows for increased water solubility of compounds in aqueous media. The terminal carboxylic acid can react with primary amine groups in the presence of activators (e.g. EDC, or HATU) to form a stable amide bond.

DBCO-PEG8-acid is a PEG-based PROTAC linker that can be used in the synthesis of PROTACs[1]. DBCO-PEG8-acid is a click chemistry reagent, it contains a DBCO group that can undergo strain-promoted alkyne-azide cycloaddition (SPAAC) with molecules containing Azide groups.
