m-PEG3-COOH is a methoxy-terminated PEG carboxylic acid linker component with a short hydrophilic ether spacer and a terminal acid group. The PEG segment contributes polarity and flexibility, while the acid handle can be activated for amide coupling with amine-bearing PROTAC fragments. In linker design, this product is suitable for adding a short PEG-derived spacer or terminal hydrophilic segment to degrader analogues. It supports modular synthesis, linker polarity tuning, and comparative studies of how methoxy-capped PEG fragments influence solubility, conformational freedom, ternary complex geometry, and targeted degradation assay performance.

m-PEG3-COOH is a methoxy-capped PEG carboxylic acid linker used to introduce a short hydrophilic spacer into PROTAC constructs. It combines PEG-derived flexibility with a single acid coupling handle, making it useful for directional linker attachment. Detailed features are provided below.
Structure: The structure consists of a methoxy-terminated oligoethylene glycol chain ending in a carboxylic acid. Ether bonds provide conformational freedom and polarity, while the terminal acid enables covalent conjugation.
Reactivity: The carboxylic acid can be activated for amide-bond formation with amine-containing target or E3-ligand fragments. Carbodiimide, uronium, or phosphonium coupling conditions are commonly suitable. Reactions should use compatible base and polar organic solvents, with minimized water exposure to reduce activated-acid hydrolysis.
