Application

tert-Butyl 12-amino-4,7,10-trioxadodecanoate is generally used as a spacer or linker in bioconjugate chemistry. Some of its applications are:Synthesis of the tetanus-toxin conjugate of MUC1 glycopeptide antigen, as a potential antitumor vaccine.Synthesis of self-assembled monolayer-based surface-enhanced raman scattering (SERS) labels for immuno-SERS microscopy.Synthesis of polycationic adamantane-based dendrons for cell imaging.Synthesis of phthalocyanine (Pc)-peptide conjugates as potential fluorescence imaging agents for cancers overexpressing epidermal growth factor receptors (EGFR).

Other Notes
