Propargyl-PEG4-OCH2-Boc

 CAS No.: 2098489-63-3  Cat No.: BP-500885  Purity: ≥95% 4.5  

Propargyl-PEG4-OCH2-Boc is a heterobifunctional PEG linker featuring a terminal propargyl group at one terminus and a Boc-protected carboxylate at the other, connected through a tetraethylene glycol spacer with an intervening methylene unit. The propargyl group provides a terminal alkyne that serves as a bioorthogonal handle for copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition, enabling highly selective and efficient conjugation to azide-functionalized target protein ligands or E3 ubiquitin ligase-recruiting moieties under mild aqueous conditions. This click chemistry approach is widely employed in PROTAC synthesis due to its quantitative yields, broad functional group tolerance, and compatibility with sensitive biomolecules. The Boc group protects the distal carboxylic acid during click conjugation and can be removed under standard acidic conditions to reveal a free carboxylate for subsequent amide coupling with amine-containing ligands. The PEG spacer enhances aqueous solubility and provides the conformational flexibility necessary for productive ternary complex assembly between the target protein and the E3 ubiquitin ligase. Researchers utilize this linker to leverage click chemistry-based bioconjugation in PROTAC assembly, investigating how this modular conjugation strategy influences degradation potency and selectivity in targeted protein degradation studies.

This heterobifunctional oligoether linker combines a terminal alkyne with an acid-labile protected carboxyl group. It supports reliable click attachment to an azide-bearing ligand and subsequent amide formation, providing a flexible, polar spacer for convergent PROTAC assembly. Structural and reaction details follow.

Structure: The molecule contains a propargyl ether at one end, an oligoether chain, and a tert-butyl acetate at the other. Its framework features a terminal carbon–carbon triple bond, multiple ether bonds, flexible methylene groups, and a protected ester carbonyl.

Reactivity: Join the terminal alkyne to an azide by cuprous-catalyzed cycloaddition in aqueous alcohol, dimethylformamide, or another compatible polar medium, using a copper ligand and reductant when copper is generated in situ. Acidic cleavage then releases the carboxylic acid from the tert-butyl ester. Carbodiimide- or uronium-mediated activation enables coupling to an amine-bearing PROTAC partner under basic, anhydrous conditions.
