Application

4-Nitrophenyl (2-(vinyloxy)ethyl) carbonate is a vinyl ether photoclick reagent (VE) mediated by visible light for bioorthogonal reaction with a 9,10-phenanthrenequinone (PQ) photoclick reagent (see cat# 913766) for increased spatiotemporal control within biological applications. Signficantly, analysis of reactivity suggests this photoclick reaction is orthogonal to azide-alkyne and UV-mediated tetrazole-ene photoclick reactions, allowing for various means of simulteneous labeling of biomolecules in a given sample. This method requires no catalyst and is reported to be compatible with cells.

Here we report a visible light-triggered, catalyst free bioorthogonal reaction that proceeds via a distinct pathway from reported bioorthogonal reactions. The prototype of this bioorthogonal reaction was the photocycloaddition of 9,10-phenanthrenequinone with electron-rich alkenes to form fluorogenic [4+2] cycloadducts. The
