Propargyl-PEG4-(CH2)3-methyl ester consists of a propargyl group and a methyl ester. The propargyl group reacts with azide-bearing compounds or biomolecules in copper catalyzed Click Chemistry reactions to form a stable triazole linkage. Under strong basic condition, methyl ester can be hydrolyzed.
Propargyl-PEG4-CH2-methyl ester is a PEG-based PROTAC linker that can be used in the synthesis of PROTACs[1]. Propargyl-PEG4-CH2-methyl ester is a click chemistry reagent, it contains an Alkyne group and can undergo copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAc) with molecules containing Azide groups.
