摘要

The free-radical hydrothiolation of alkynes (thiol-yne dagger coupling, TYC) unites two thiol fragments across the carbon-carbon triple bond to give a dithioether derivative with exclusive 1,2-addition; this reaction can be used for modification of peptides and proteins allowing glycoconjugation and fluorescent labeling. These results have implications not only as a flexible strategy for attaching two modifications at a single site in proteins but also for unanticipated side-reactions of reagents (such as cycloalkynes) used in other protein coupling reactions.
