Azido-PEG10-NHS ester is a versatile PEG-based PROTAC linker and click chemistry reagent. It contains an Azide group, facilitating copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAc) with alkyne-containing molecules, and strain-promoted alkyne-azide cycloaddition (SPAAC) with DBCO or BCN groups. This compound is instrumental in the synthesis of PROTACs, which leverage the intracellular ubiquitin-proteasome system for targeted protein degradation.
