Development of efficient and rapid protocols for diversification of functional magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) would enable identification of promising candidates using high-throughput protocols for applications such as diagnostics and cure through early detection and localized delivery. Polymer brush coated magnetic nanoparticles find use in many such applications. A protocol that allows modular diversification of a pool of parent polymer coated nanoparticles will lead to a library of functional materials with improved uniformity. In the present study, polymer brush coated parent magnetic nanoparticles obtained using reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization are modified to obtain nanoparticles with different clickable groups. In this design; trithiocarbonate group terminated polymer brushes are grafted from MNPs using a catechol group bearing initiator. A postpolymerization radical exchange reaction allows installation of clickable functional groups like azides and maleimides on the chain ends of the polymers. Thus, modified MNPs can be functionalized using allcynfe-containing and thiol-containing moieties like peptides and dyes using the alkyne-azide cycloaddition and the thiol-ene conjugation, respectively. Using the approach outlined here, a cell surface receptor targeting cyclic peptide and a fluorescent dye are attached onto nanoparticle surface.. This multifunctional construct allows selective recognition of cancer cells, that overexpress integrin receptors. Furthermore; the approach outlined here is not limited to the installation of azide and maleimide functional groups but can be expanded to a variety of clickable groups to allow nanopartide modification using a broad range of chemical conjugations.
