Graphical Abstract
  • commonly used click reactions and shows high specificity [15][16]. The Cu(I) catalyst increases the coupling rate of azides and alkynes by up to seven orders of magnitude, forming triazole rings, which possess exceptional chemical stability [16]. For these reasons, the CuAAC has been utilized extensively
  • for the preparation of functional IONPs capped with either alkynes or azides [8][13][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27]. The thiol–maleimide Michael addition reaction is another commonly employed click reaction [28][29][30][31], which can be performed at room temperature by simply mixing
  • IONPs, which can be coupled to azides through the CuAAC, with no detectable cross-reactivity. At this point, it may be tempting to label the conjugation reaction as a success. However, an important step in the synthesis has been neglected: We have not provided evidence that the binding of PPA is through

Azides and alkynes are inert towards most functional groups and biomolecules. Hence, the NPs are functionalized
