Abstrakt: Chemical reaction systems that can occur via multiple pathways in a controllable fashion are highly attractive for advanced materials applications and biological research. In this report, we introduce a bioorthogonal reaction manifold based on a chalcone pyrene ( CPyr ) moiety that can undergo either red-shifted photoreversible [2 + 2] cycloaddition or thiol-Michael addition click reaction. By coupling the CPyr to a water-soluble poly(ethylene glycol) end group, we demonstrate the efficient polymer dimerization and cleavage by blue light (λ = 450 nm) and UV light (λ = 340 nm), respectively. In the absence of light, CPyr rapidly reacts with thiols in aqueous environments, enabling fast and efficient polymer end-group functionalization. The chemical reaction manifold was further employed in polymer cross-linking for the preparation of hydrogels whose stiffness and morphology can be modulated by different photonic fields or the addition of a thiol cross-linker. The photoreversible cycloaddition and thiol-Michael addition click reaction can be used in conjunction for spatial and temporal conjugation of a streptavidin protein. Both cross-linking conditions are nontoxic to various cell lines, highlighting their potential in biomaterials applications.
