Trimethoxysilyl Alkyl Aldehyde (90%) Or 3-(Trimethoxysilyl)Butyl Aldehyde

Trimethoxysilyl-alkyl-aldehyde (approx. 90%), often referred to as 3-trimethoxysilylbutyl aldehyde, is an organosilane bearing an aldehyde functional group and a trimethoxysilane backbone. The aldehyde functionality allows for reversible Schiff base formation or coupling with amines, hydrazines, or other nucleophiles, while the trimethoxysilane group supports bonding to inorganic surfaces.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Aldehyde group enables covalent coupling to amine- or hydrazine-containing molecules

• Trimethoxysilane group bonds to siliceous surfaces or metal oxides

• Useful in surface functionalization, bioconjugation, and sensor design

Typical Applications:

• Immobilization of proteins, peptides, or amine-bearing organics via Schiff bases

• Surface modification of biosensors, microarrays, or diagnostic devices

• Hybrid coatings, conjugated surfaces, or functional interfaces

• Specialty adhesives or coupling layers with reactive groups
