Summary:[Display omitted] •Alkyne-X (“click”) chemistry: cyclo, radical, and nucleophilic addition reactions.•Modular platform of functionalizable polypeptoids.•Synthesis of polypeptoid ionic liquids and graft copolymers. Poly(N-propargyl glycine) (PNPG) can be readily prepared by ring-opening polymerization of N-propargyl glycine N-carboxyanhydride (NCA) and modified using various addition reactions such as copper catalyzed [3+2] cycloaddition of azide, radical (photo-)addition of thiol, nucleophilic addition of ethylene oxide, and thermal induced cross-linking. It is demonstrated that PNPG can serve as a modular platform to produce a bibliography of novel functional polypeptoid or pseudopeptide materials, including polypeptoid ionic liquids and graft copolymers.
