Abstract
A new, interdisciplinary research area has emerged known as bioorganometallic chemistry. It focuses on the introduction of organometallic fragments into biomolecules (see, for example, structure on the right). “Classical” α‐amino acid and peptide ligands have proven particularly versatile, and provide access to compounds that display interesting stereochemistry. α‐Amino acids and peptides can be synthesized, labeled, stabilized, or activated by organometallic fragments.Keywords
