Description
t-Boc-N-Amido-PEG2-amine is a PEG linker containing an amino group and Boc-protected amino group. The hydrophilic PEG spacer increases solubility in aqueous media. The amino group is reactive with carboxylic acids, activated NHS esters, carbonyls (ketone, aldehyde) etc. The Boc group can be deprotected under mild acidic conditions to form the free amine.
Uses
Linker reagent for the prep. of a broad variety of linked tags, monomers for polymerisation, ionophores etc., e.g. biotinylation reagents.
