Propargylcholine Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Description

Propargylcholine bromide is an alkynyl derivative of choline that has a propargyl group in place of one methyl group. It can be used to assay phospholipid synthesis and localization in cells and tissues using Raman scattering microscopy or click chemistry labeling with fluorescent or affinity-tagged azides.

Uses

Propargylcholine bromide is a choline analogue containing terminal propargyl that can be incorporated into all classes of Choline-containing phospholipids such as phosphatidylcholine and sphingomyelin, labeling Choline-containing phospholipids. Propargylcholine bromide-labeled phospholipid molecules can be visualized in cells with high sensitivity and spatial resolution. Propargylcholine bromide can be used as a molecular tool to study the biochemical and metabolic processes of Choline-containing phospholipids in cells[1][2]. Propargylcholine (bromide) is a click chemistry reagent, it contains an Alkyne group and can undergo copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAc) with molecules containing Azide groups.
