description Product Description
This compound, characterized by a 4-nitrophenoxy group linked to a tetraethylene glycol chain and terminated with an ethanamine moiety, acts as a versatile key intermediate in organic synthesis. The nitro group on the aromatic ring enables selective reduction to an amine for further functionalization, while the polyether backbone imparts hydrophilicity and flexibility. It is widely used in the synthesis of functionalized polymers and dendrimers due to its multi-ether chain and terminal amine group. In pharmaceutical research, it is valuable for conjugating hydrophilic linkers to drug molecules, enhancing solubility and bioavailability. The polyether structure facilitates strong interactions with biological membranes, making it ideal for prodrug design and targeted drug delivery systems. Furthermore, it finds applications in sensor and molecular probe development, where the amine and nitro groups allow easy attachment of fluorophores, recognition elements, or other moieties. As a flexible hydrophilic spacer, it improves immunoassay and diagnostic platform performance by minimizing non-specific binding and boosting sensitivity.
