Strain-Promoted Azide-Alkyne Cycloaddition SPAAC Reactions

POC-click is formed by thermo-cross-linking the mixture of pre-POC-N (azide-containing POC prepolymer) and pre-POC-Al (alkyne-containing POC prepolymer) the process applies synchronous binary cross-link mechanism, esterification, and thermal click reaction, and the residual azide groups on the surface of POC-click film or scaffold paved the way of surface bioconjugation through strain-promoted alkyne-azide cycloaddition (SPAAC), another copper-free click reaction.

Strain-promoted azide-alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC), since its inception in 2004, has firmly established itself as a powerful click chemistry tool. The commercial access of starting materials, its ease of operation, the nowadays practical reaction...

Sequential click strategies were utihzed by Zhang, Cheng, and coworkers to precisely construct new surfactants based on polyhedral oligomeric silsesquiox-ane (POSS), tethering cychc polymers [109]. The general synthetic approach involves different types of click chemistries sequentially performed strain-promoted azide-alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC), CuAAC for POSS—polymer conjugation, and thiol-ene reactions for POSS surface functionalization.
