Used as a protected amino alcohol linker in pharmaceutical synthesis, particularly in the development of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) and prodrugs. Its structure allows for conjugation to targeting moieties while providing solubility and controlled release properties. The benzyl carbamate group serves as a protecting group for the amine, which can be removed under mild conditions to release the active compound. It is valued in bioconjugation chemistry for its stability in biological environments and its ability to improve the pharmacokinetic profile of drug molecules. Also applied in polymer chemistry to introduce functional handles for further modification.
