Abstract
Bioorthogonal bond-cleavage reactions have evolved into powerful tools for chemical biology, representing a promising strategy for achieving controlled release of molecules under physiologically relevant conditions, even in living organisms. Since their discovery, significant efforts have been invested in the development and understanding of the underlying chemistries to enhance the click-to-release performance, biocompatibility, and stability of bioorthogonal tools. In this review, we aim to provide a concise overview of click-triggered bioorthogonal bond-cleavage reactions, with an emphasis on the mechanisms and characteristics of the most commonly applied click-to-release chemistries.
期刊介绍:
Topics in Current Chemistry is a journal that presents critical reviews of present and future trends in modern chemical research. It covers all areas of chemical science, including interactions with related disciplines like biology, medicine, physics, and materials science. The articles in this journal are organized into thematic collections, offering a comprehensive perspective on emerging research to non-specialist readers in academia or industry. Each review article focuses on one aspect of the topic and provides a critical survey, placing it in the context of the collection. Selected examples highlight significant developments from the past 5 to 10 years. Instead of providing an exhaustive summary or extensive data, the articles concentrate on methodological thinking. This approach allows non-specialist readers to understand the information fully and presents the potential prospects for future developments.
