Spotlight on lipids: One of the major limitations of tetrazine bioorthogonal cycloadditions is the requirement of bulky dienophile reaction partners. Methylcyclopropene tags were designed capable of reacting rapidly with tetrazines while maintaining stability in aqueous solution. The suitability of these probes for bioconjugation is shown by imagingcyclopropene‐modified phospholipids in live human cancer cells
