Application: 9,10-Dioxo-9,10-dihydrophenanthrene-3-carboxylic acid is a photoclick reagent mediated by visible light for bioorthogonal reaction with an electron-rich vinyl either (VE) functionality (see cat#914010) 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.
