Exposing the intermediate products then to the same reaction (i. e., strain-promoted alkyne-azide cycloaddition, SPAAC) with an excess of slightly different oligonucleotide constituents in an aqueous medium yields molecularly defined monofunctionalized spherical nucleic acids (SNAs). This procedure offers a controlled synthesi... VO - IS - SP - OP - KW - CELLULAR UPTAKE; CLICK CHEMISTRY; MECHANISM; AZIDES; 317 Pharmacy N1 - PP - ER -
