Description

10-Azido-1-Decanol is a bifunctional organic compound featuring both a terminal azido group and a primary hydroxyl group on a ten-carbon alkyl chain. This unique structure makes it a versatile click chemistry building block and a valuable intermediate for the synthesis of more complex molecules. It is primarily used by researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, bioconjugation, and materials science sectors for applications such as polymer modification, probe development, and drug discovery.

Application

• Click Chemistry Reagent: The terminal azide group readily participates in copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reactions for efficient bioconjugation and polymer functionalization.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Serves as a key synthon in the development of novel drug candidates, particularly for introducing functionalized alkyl chains or creating prodrug linkages.
• Polymer Science: Used to synthesize azide-functionalized polymers or to cross-link polymer chains via click chemistry, modifying material properties.
• Bioconjugation & Probe Synthesis: Enables the labeling of biomolecules (proteins, peptides, oligonucleotides) with fluorescent dyes, affinity tags, or other reporter groups.
• Surface Modification: Facilitates the creation of functionalized surfaces on materials like glass, gold, or polymers for biosensor and microarray applications.
• Material Science Research: Acts as a precursor for novel surfactants, lubricant additives, or liquid crystal compounds due to its amphiphilic nature.
