CuI-catalyzed azide-alkyne 1, 3-dipolar cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction,[1, 2] renascent of the well-known Huisgen reaction,[3] has recently flourished with applications in organic synthesis, drug discovery, polymer and materials science, and biotechnology.[4–7] The high reaction yield, simple reaction and purification conditions, wide range of solvent and pH stabilities, and functional group tolerance make the CuAAC reaction a prototypical “click chemistry”,[8] ideal for incorporating functionalities onto desired scaffolds. Over the years it has been widely employed to construct and functionalize polymeric and polyvalent display systems, including polymers,[9–16] dendrimers,[17, 18] nanoparticles,[19] and surfaces,[20–22] where an extremely high reaction efficiency for every unit reaction is desirable.[23, 24] In particular, as organic azides and alkynes are almost unreactive with biomolecules and water, CuAAC reactions have been employed in derivatizing biomacromolecules,[25, 26] viruses,[27–29] and cells [30–32] with high efficacy under mild reaction conditions. Recently tyrosine residues have been considered as a particularly attractive target for chemoselective modification of proteins because of its subabundant distribution. Francis and coworkers have reported a number of transformations, ranging from the Mannich-type reaction to a transition metal mediated allylation reaction to a diazonium-coupling reaction, which can efficiently target the phenolic group of tyrosine residues at physiological conditions.[33–36] To overcome the sluggish reactivity with electron-enriched diazonium salts, a sequential reduction/oxidation/Diels–Alder reaction was developed to break the limitation of functionalities being incorporated.[36] In this communication, we report that CuAAC reactions can be combined with a diazonium-coupling reaction to quantitatively functionalize tyrosine residues with a wide array of starting materials.Tobacco Mosaic Virus (TMV) is a classic example of rodlike plant viruses consisting of 2130 identical protein subunits arranged helically around genomic single RNA strand. The length of TMV, that is, 300 nm, is defined by the encapsulated genomic RNA that stabilizes the coat protein assembly. The polar outer and inner surfaces of TMV have been exploited as templates to grow metal or metal oxide nanowires,[36–43] and conductive polymers have been coated on 1D assembled TMV to
