Description

2-(2-Azidoethoxy)Ethanol is a specialized bifunctional organic compound featuring both an azido group and a hydroxyl-terminated ethylene glycol chain. This unique structure makes it a valuable click chemistry precursor and a versatile building block for the synthesis of functionalized polymers and biomolecule conjugates. It is essential for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, materials science, and bioconjugation sectors who require reliable, high-purity intermediates for advanced R&D and production.

Application

• Click Chemistry Reagent: Serves as a key intermediate for Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions, enabling the efficient synthesis of triazole-linked compounds.
• Polymer Functionalization: Used to introduce azide functionalities into polymer backbones (e.g., PEGs, polyesters) for subsequent cross-linking or labeling.
• Bioconjugation Linker: Facilitates the site-specific attachment of drugs, dyes, or other probes to proteins, antibodies, or oligonucleotides.
• Surface Modification: Employed to create azide-functionalized surfaces for immobilizing biomolecules or constructing bioactive coatings.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Acts as a building block in the synthesis of complex active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and prodrugs.
• Materials Science Research: Utilized in developing novel hydrogels, dendrimers, and smart materials with tailored properties.

Quality Control

Our 2-(2-Azidoethoxy)Ethanol is produced under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and NMR for structural confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and synthesis. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its light-sensitive nature, containers should be kept in opaque or amber glass and handled under low-light conditions. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flames.
