Product Information

• Name: Phenoxyacetic anhydride

Description

Phenoxyacetic anhydride is a molecule that contains a hydroxyl group, which can be used in the synthesis of DNA. This molecule has been shown to have oxidizing properties and is used in the synthesis of model proteins. Phenoxyacetic anhydride reacts with nucleic acids by attacking the amino function of the nucleotide, breaking the phosphate bond and forming a hydrogen bond. The reaction between phenoxyacetic anhydride and nucleic acids yields asymmetric molecules called dna duplexes.
