Researchers used a novel phosphate-activation reagent, 2-MeImIm-Cl, in an improved coupling reaction to increase the yield of ADP- or ATP-containing molecules. Unlike traditional reactions, the modified coupling reaction does not require protecting groups, is simple to perform and exhibits high reproducibility.
