Mes-PEG5- t-butyl ester

Description

Ms-PEG4-t-butyl ester is a PEG linker with a mesyl group and a t-butyl protecting group. Mesyl is a good leaving group and can participate in substitution reactions. The t-butyl group can be removed under acidic condtions. The hydrophilic PEG linker increases the solubility properties of compounds in aqueous media.

Uses

Ms-PEG5-t-butyl ester is a PEG-based PROTAC linker that can be used in the synthesis of PROTACs[1].
