Hydroxy-PEG4-nitrile

Description

Hydroxy-PEG4-nitrile is a PEG linker which contains a hydroxyl group and a nitrile group. The hydroxyl group enables further derivatization or replacement with other reactive functional groups. The nitrile group can undergo hydrolysis, reduction and other reactions. The hydrophilic PEG spacer increases the solubility in aqueous media.

Uses

Hydroxy-PEG4-C2-nitrile is a PEG-based PROTAC linker that can be used in the synthesis of PROTACs[1].
