Bromo-PEG6-alcohol(CAT: I016581) is a heterobifunctional polyethylene glycol (PEG) derivative containing six ethylene glycol units with a terminal bromide group and a terminal hydroxyl group. The bromide moiety provides a reactive handle for nucleophilic substitution or further chemical transformation, while the hydroxyl group enables versatile derivatization or conjugation. The PEG6 spacer imparts hydrophilicity, flexibility, and reduced steric hindrance, enhancing solubility and stability of modified molecules. This reagent is widely employed in synthesis chemistry, bioconjugation, and surface modification. Its defined chain length makes it suitable for linker design, polymer engineering, and the development of advanced biomedical materials and functionalized nanostructures.
