Application

6-Azidohexanoic acid is a six-carbon saturated fatty acid with an ω-terminal azide group. This building block can be reacted with primary amine groups in the presence of activators (e.g. EDC, or DCC), forming a stable amide bond. The terminal azide group allows conjugation with compounds containing alkyne groups through a copper(I)-catalyzed cycloaddition reaction, also known as click chemistry. 6-Azidohexanoic acid is useful for crosslinking, synthesis of chemical probes, and other bioconjugation strategies.

Well-defined dendronized cellulose substrates displaying multiple representations of dual-functionality were constructed by taking advantage of the efficiency of the click reaction combined with traditional anhydride chemistry. First, activated cellulose surfaces were decorated with several generations of dendrons, and their peripheral
