title: A "clickable" titanium surface platform.
abstract: A straightforward functionalization of a titanium surface using "click" chemistry is reported. A "clickable" titanium surface platform was prepared by the immobilization of an azide-functionalized electroactive catechol anchor and was subsequently derivatized with an electroactive or fluorinated probe via the CuAAC (copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition) reaction. The course of the reaction was investigated by contact angle, XPS, and electrochemical measurements.
