Tetrafluorophenyl Esters
Tetrafluorophenyl (TFP) ester chemistry is typically used to attach fluorophores or haptens to the primary amines of biomolecules. They produce the same amide bonds that are formed through conjugation with other amine-reactive groups, such as succinimidyl esters (SE, Hydroxysuccinimide- or NHS-ester), but TFP esters are less susceptible to spontaneous hydrolysis during conjugation reactions. TFP esters are stable for several hours at basic pH, far outlasting succinimidyl esters.

Pentafluorophenyl Esters
Pentafluorophenyl (PFP) esters are chemical compounds with the generic formula RC(O)OC6F5. They are active esters derived from pentafluorophenol (HOC6F5). PFP esters are useful for attaching fluorophores such as fluorescein or haptens to primary amines in biomolecules. They also are valuable in laboratory peptide synthesis In organic chemistry, peptide synthesis is the production of peptides, compounds where multiple amino acids are linked via amide bonds, also known as peptide bonds. Peptides are chemically synthesized by the condensation reaction of the carboxyl .... Pentafluorophenyl esters produce amide bonds as effectively as succinimidyl esters and various similar agents do, but PFP esters are particularly useful because they are less susceptible to spontaneous hydrolysis during conjugation reactions.
