We report here a photochemical process for the selective modification of tryptophan (Trp) residues in peptides and small proteins using electron-responsive N-carbamoylpyridinium salts and UV-B light. Preliminary mechanistic experiments suggest that the photoconjugation process proceeds through photoinduced electron transfer (PET) between Trp and the pyridinium salt, followed by fragmentation of the pyridinium N-N bond and concomitant transfer of this group to Trp. The reaction displays excellent site selectivity for Trp and is tolerant t
