Application

Succinimidyl ester functionalized norbornene. Succinimidyl ester group will react with amine containing compounds such as lysine residues on proteins/peptides. Norbornene has been shown to react with 1; 2; 4; 5-tetrazines in an inverse electron demand Diels-Alder cycloaddition reaction which is a bioorthogonal reaction demonstrated to be useful in biological imaging applications.

We present a bioorthogonal and modular conjugation method for efficient coupling of organic dyes and biomolecules to quantum dots (QDs) using a norbornene-tetrazine cycloaddition. The use of noncoordinating functional groups combined with the rapid rate of the cycloaddition leads to

Bioorthogonal tetrazine cycloadditions have been applied to live cell labeling. Tetrazines react irreversibly with the strained dienophile norbornene forming dihydropyrazine products and dinitrogen. The reaction is high yielding, selective, and fast in aqueous media. Her2/neu receptors on live human breast
