Description: Bromo-PEG1-CH2CO2H is a PEG derivative containing a bromide group with a terminal carboxylic acid. The terminal carboxylic acid can be reacted with primary amine groups in the presence of activators (e.g. EDC, or DCC) to form a stable amide bond. The bromide (Br) is a very good leaving group for nucleophilic substitution reactions.
