General description

N,N,N′,N′-Tetramethyl-O-(N-succinimidyl)uronium hexafluorophosphate can be used to prepare N-succinimidyl 4-[18F]fluorobenzoate ([18F]-SFB), a prosthetic group for the fluorination of biomolecules for PET imaging.

Application

Reactant for:
Synthesis of liposomal contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging
Synthesis of thiol-reactive Cy5 derivatives
Synthesis of protein labeling molecules

Other Notes

Coupling reagent for peptide synthesis and the formation of other amides. Even in aqueous solution yields are excellent

This work reports the synthesis and characterisation of new amphiphilic hyaluronan (HA) grafted with poly(3-hydroxyalkanoates) (PHAs) conjugates. Hydrolytic depolymerisation of PHAs was used for the synthesis of defined oligo(3-hydroxyalkanoates)-containing carboxylic terminal moieties. A kinetic study of the depolymerisation was followed
