Diazepam azide

Product key features

  • Azide-functionalized for click chemistry – Enables selective conjugation via CuAAC or SPAAC, facilitating site-specific modification.
  • Pharmacologically active benzodiazepine core – Maintains high-affinity interaction with GABAA receptors, suitable for receptor binding & modulation studies.
  • Broad probe compatibility – Reacts efficiently with alkyne-modified fluorophores, biotin, or drug delivery platforms for downstream applications.
  • Sterically accessible reactive site – Optimized structural design minimizes interference with conjugation efficiency & receptor binding.
  • Application versatility – Ideal for use in receptor localization, ligand-target engagement, mechanistic pharmacology & imaging-based assays.

Product description

Diazepam azide is an azide-functionalized analog of diazepam designed for site-specific conjugation using bioorthogonal click chemistry, including copper-catalyzed azide–alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) and strain-promoted azide–alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC). The presence of the azide group allows for efficient and selective labeling while maintaining the pharmacologically active benzodiazepine scaffold that interacts with GABAA receptors. This compound is well suited for applications in neuropharmacology and chemical biology, enabling covalent attachment to alkyne-containing fluorophores, affinity probes, or drug delivery systems. Diazepam azide supports real-time imaging, receptor binding studies, and mechanistic investigations by combining biological functionality with chemical reactivity. Its structural design minimizes steric hindrance around the reactive site, ensuring compatibility with conjugation strategies and retention of native receptor interactions. This reagent offers a flexible platform for exploring benzodiazepine receptor activity, visualizing ligand localization, and developing conjugate-based research tools.
