Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
Hydroxy-PEG4-CH2CO2H, sodium salt, is a PEG derivative containing a hydroxyl group with a terminal carboxylic acid. The terminal carboxylic acid can be reacted with primary amine groups in the presence of activators (e.g. EDC, or DCC) to form a stable amide bond. The hydrophilic PEG spacer increases solubility in aqueous media. The hydroxyl group enables further derivatization or replacement with other reactive functional groups. |
