Gold-catalyzed direct alkynylation of tryptophan in peptides using TIPS-EBX

The selective functionalization of peptides containing only natural amino acids is important for the modification of biomolecules. In particular, the installation of an alkyne as a useful handle for bioconjugation is highly attractive, but the use of a carbon linker is usually required. Herein, we r...
