Halogens are another very reactive group, this time because they want to gain an electron.
This chapter studies the bioorthogonal reagents, which contain a reactive group that will react with another specific reactive group without any potential for crossreactivity with biomolecule functionalities.
Glucose is an aldohexose i.e., it contains six carbon atoms, and the chemically reactive group is an aldehyde group.
They felt slightly more in control of their own time and a bit less time-stressed than the reactive group.
However, the latter potentially offer higher reactive group concentration thanks to the reactive anhydride groups.
One, the reactive group, reacts with an amino acid called cysteine.
Akcay et al. use a recently described formyl boronic acid moiety, which acts as the reactive group to specifically and preferentially create a covalent bond with lysine residues.
The term "chemoselective ligation" has been used to describe the coupling of one reactive group specifically with another reactive group without side reactions in aqueous solution or in the presence of biological material.
Here, we attempted to synthesize a highly functional TPU with a reactive group from the synthesized azido diol.
It was designed to provide different reaction behaviors resulting from α,β-dibromopropionylamido and dichloro-s-triazinyl reactive group.
