Amphiphilic Iodine(III) Reagents for the Lipophilization of Peptides in Water

Jérôme Waser, Durga Prasada Rao Hari, Romain Gaëtan Tessier, Abhaya Kumar Mishra

We report the functionalization of cysteine residues with lipophilic alkynes bearing a silyl group or an alkyl chain using amphiphilic ethynylbenziodoxolone reagents (EBXs). The reactions were carried out in buffer (pH 6 to 9), without organic co-solvent o ...
