1,8-Diamino-3,6-dioxaoctane CAS 929-59-9
Aure Chemical Supplies 1,8-Diamino-3,6-dioxaoctane CAS 929-59-9 for PEG Linker and Specialty Synthesis
1,8-Diamino-3,6-dioxaoctane, also known as NH2-PEG3-NH2, is a short hydrophilic diamine featuring a diethylene glycol spacer between two primary amino groups. This structure makes it a practical building block for introducing flexible, water-compatible linkages in organic molecules. Aure Chemical provides sourcing support for this functional PEG derivative to customers engaged in pharmaceutical intermediate development and specialty synthesis projects worldwide.
The terminal amino groups enable straightforward coupling reactions such as amide bond formation, while the PEG3 chain imparts hydrophilicity and conformational flexibility. It is commonly handled as a liquid and finds use in laboratory-scale research through to pilot and bulk process development. Product specifications typically range from 95% to 99%+ purity depending on grade requirements.
