Amino acids and peptides with stannylated vinyl or aryl side chains are interesting
synthetic building blocks that can be easily modified by cross-couplings and metal–halogen
exchange reactions, whether for the synthesis of complex natural products and active
ingredients or for radiolabeling. The article provides an overview of the new methods
and applications.
