Chloro PEG3 alcohol CAS 5197-62-6

Aure Chemical Supplies Chloro PEG3 alcohol CAS 5197-62-6 for PEG Linker and Specialty Synthesis

Chloro PEG3 alcohol (CAS 5197-62-6), also known as 2-[2-(2-chloroethoxy)ethoxy]ethanol, is a monodisperse chloro-functional polyethylene glycol derivative. It features a terminal chloro group and a terminal hydroxyl group connected by a triethylene glycol chain, making it a useful intermediate for organic synthesis and linker construction.

This compound serves as a building block in fine chemical and pharmaceutical research where a defined hydrophilic spacer with a reactive chloro terminus is required. Aure Chemical provides reliable sourcing support for this specialty PEG derivative along with essential documentation for global customers.
