Development of Biocompatible Cu(I)-Microdevices for Bioorthogonal Uncaging and Click Reactions.

ABSTRACT: Transition-metal-catalyzed bioorthogonal reactions emerged a decade ago as a novel strategy to implement spatiotemporal control over enzymatic functions and pharmacological interventions. The use of this methodology in experimental therapy is driven by the ambition of improving the tolerability and PK properties of clinically-used therapeutic agents. The preclinical potential of bioorthogonal catalysis has been validated in vitro and in vivo with the in situ generation of a broad range of drugs, including cytotoxic agents, anti-inflammatory drugs and anxiolytics. In this article, we report our investigations towards the preparation of solid-supported Cu(I)-microdevices and their application in bioorthogonal uncaging and click reactions. A range of ligand-functionalized polymeric devices an
