Description
1,1,1-Trifluoroethyl-PEG5-Propargyl forms triazole linkage with azides via copper catalyzed azide-alkyne Click Chemistry. The trifluoroethyl group is reactive towards primary amine groups in proteins, antibody and other molecules and surfaces.
Uses
1,1,1-Trifluoroethyl-PEG4-propargyl is a PEG-based PROTAC linker that can be used in the synthesis of PROTACs[1]. 1,1,1-Trifluoroethyl-PEG4-propargyl is a click chemistry reagent, it contains an Alkyne group and can undergo copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAc) with molecules containing Azide groups.
