The incorporation of lipophilic phosphonodithioesters in phospholipid formulations generates clickable liposomes that react with amines. The kinetics of this metal free phosphonodithioester-amine coupling (PAC) on liposomes in water is reported and can be classified as a fast reaction with a second order rate constant of k ≈ 8 × 102 M-1 s-1. The PAC reaction represents a versatile strategy to functionalize liposomes.

A convergent synthesis of cationic amphiphilic compounds is reported here with the use of the phosphonodithioester-amine coupling (PAC) reaction. This versatile reaction occurs at room temperature without any catalyst, allowing binding of the lipid moiety to a polar head group. This strategy is illustrated with the use of two lipid units featuring either two oleyl chains or two-branched saturated lipid chains.
