We report a new positively charged azidoamino acid for strain-promoted azide-alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC) applications that overcomes possible solubility limitations of commonly used azidolysine, especially in systems with numerous ligation sites. The residue is easily synthesized, is compatible with Fmoc-based solid-phase peptide synthesis employing a range of coupling conditions, and offers efficient second-order rate constants in SPAAC ligations employing DBCO (0.34 M-1 s-1) and BCN (0.28 M-1 s-1).
