Abstract

Click chemistry is applied to selectively modify, lable and ligate peptides for their use as therapeutics, in biomaterials or analytical investigations. The inverse electron demand Diels-Alder (IEDDA) reaction is a catalyst-free click reaction with pronounced chemoselectivity and fast reaction rates. Applications and achievements of the IEDDA reaction in peptide chemistry since 2008 are described in this review.
