Post-synthetic modification of tryptophan containing peptides via NIS mediation

Org Biomol Chem. 2017 Apr 18;15(16):3396-3400. doi: 10.1039/c7ob00329c.

Abstract

A new efficient method was developed to provide modified tryptophan peptides through NIS (N-iodosuccinimide) mediated N2-selective coupling of a Trp unit with 1,2,3-triazoles, of which, the preliminary spectral properties were also studied.
