15-Azido-pentadecanoic acid (Cat No.: I042599) is a synthetic azido fatty acid composed of a 15-carbon saturated chain terminating in an azide functional group. It serves as a valuable building block in bioorthogonal chemistry, especially for copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reactions. This reagent is widely used in lipid research, bioconjugation, and surface functionalization. Its long hydrophobic chain allows for incorporation into lipid membranes or biomolecules, making it useful in tracking, labeling, and studying lipid metabolism and membrane-associated biological processes.
