A series of side-chain modified peptides have been prepared via an iterative sequence of peptide couplings and azide–alkyne cycloadditions (‘click’ reactions) using Fmoc-solid phase peptide synthesis. This efficient modular synthetic route allows the systematic and sequential incorporation of a variety of side-chain modifications onto short peptides. The versatility of this approach was demonstrated by the synthesis of a series of short peptides with appended anion recognition motifs and fluorescent indicators.
