Azido-PEG3-alcohol(CAT: R006244) is a versatile heterobifunctional polyethylene glycol (PEG) linker containing a terminal azide group and a hydroxyl group, separated by a three-unit PEG spacer. The azide moiety enables bioorthogonal conjugation through copper-catalyzed or strain-promoted azide–alkyne cycloaddition (“click chemistry”), while the hydroxyl group provides a handle for further functionalization. The PEG3 spacer enhances solubility, flexibility, and biocompatibility, reducing steric hindrance in conjugates. Azido-PEG3-alcohol is widely used in chemical biology, drug discovery, bioconjugation, and materials science for preparing functionalized biomolecules, diagnostics, and therapeutic conjugates. Its modular reactivity makes it a valuable tool for designing controlled and efficient molecular linkages.
