title: Versatile, efficient derivatization of polysiloxanes via click technology.
abstract: Copper-catalyzed (click chemistry) or thermal 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions of molecular or polymeric azido-siloxanes with a broad range of alkynes (such as amino acids or carbohydrates) easily yield new conjugates that would be otherwise difficult, if not impossible, to prepare by traditional methodologies.
