Abstract

3-[(4-Azidophenyl)dithio]propionic acid (1a) was prepared in four steps from 4,4′-diamino-diphenyldisulfide. Attachment of 1a to poly[(3-hydroxypropyl)oxirane] was accomplished under very mild conditions via an acid-catalyzed caarbodiimide coupling. Photolysis of polymer-bound 1a with an electronic flash unit proceeded without detectable disulfide bond cleavage. Mild reduction of the disulfide bond of an analogue of 1a which carried no azido group confirmed that 1a should be useful in photolabeling studies of polymer–cell surface interaction.
