Linker amide

Dressman et a/. described an alternative solid-phase synthesis in which the amino acids were N-terminally linked to a hydroxymethyl resin through a carbamate linker. Amide formation gave products 273 which, after treatment with base cyclised to yield hydantoins of typ>e 274 Scheme 4.4.6). 

Polyfunctional 2-hydtoxyalk5iamides can serve as cross-linkers for carboxyHc acid-terrninated polyester or acryHc resins (65). The hydroxyl group is activated by the neighboring amide linkage (66). SoHd grades of hydroxyamides are finding use as cross-linkers for powder coatings (67). 

Structure-activity studies of 5,6,7,8-tetrahdyro-5,5,8,8-tetramethyl-2-quinoxaline derivatives necessitated the preparation of thiophene-containing compound 17. Stetter conditions using thiazolium salt 20 as catalyst resulted in the preparation of 1,4-diketone 21 from 18 and 19. Condensation of 21 with phosphorus pentasulfide followed by saponification resulted in 17. In this fashion, the authors replaced the amide linker of parent compound 22 with the rigid thiophene moiety. 

Application of the Knorr pyrazole synthesis has also been demonstrated on solid support. ° To prepare trisubstituted pyrazoles, the diketone was linked to the solid support to make 57 using a linker with an amide bond. Alkylation of the diketone followed by condensation of the hydrazine with the resulting diketone gave the desired pyrazoles as mixtures of isomers. Subsequent cleavage of the amide bond linker then provided the pyrazole amides 59. ... 

The solid-phase synthesis of the 2(lff)-pyrazinone scaffold is based on a Strecker reaction of commercially available Wang amide linker with appropriate aldehyde and tetramethylsilyl (TMS) cyanide, followed by cyclization of a-aminonitrile with oxalyl chloride resulting in the resin linked pyrazinones. This approach allows a wide diversity at the C-6-position of pyrazinone scaffold (Scheme 35, Table 1). As it has been shown for the solution phase, the sensitive imidoyl chloride moiety can easily undergo an addition/elimination reaction with in situ-generated sodium methoxide affording the resin-linked... 

Chloro- and sulfonamide-substituted aromatic amides showed decreased binding affinity and in vivo potency compared to the simple aliphatic amides. Side chains with an additional (CH2)i-2 linker between the amide and the phenylsulfonamide group resulted in partial or absent in vivo effects [113]. The (CH2)-linked compound, (153), showed around 80-fold selectivity for CB2 over CBi binding [107]. 

A second strategy is to attach a linker (also referred to as a handle or anchor) to the resin followed by assembly of the molecule. A linker is bifunctional spacer that serves to link the initial synthetic unit to the support in two discrete steps (Fig. 3). To attach a linker to a chloromethyl-PS resin, a phenol functionality such as handle 4 is used to form an ether bond (Fig. 4). To attach the same handle to an amino-functionalized support, acetoxy function 5 or a longer methylene spacer of the corresponding phenol is applied to form an amide bond. Both of these resins perform similarly and only differ in their initial starting resin [4], An alternative approach is to prepare a preformed handle in which the first building block is prederivatized to the linker and this moiety is attached to the resin. For peptide synthesis, this practice is common for the preparation of C-terminal peptide acids in order to reduce the amount of racemization of the a-carbon at the anchoring position [5],... 

Photolabile linkers play an important role in solid-phase organic synthesis (SPOS) due to their stability under both acidic and basic conditions. The ONb photolabile linker was modified to improve cleavage rates and yields Fmoc-Tos-OFI was released in 87% yield after 23 h (Scheme 4) [24]. Specifically, the primary alcohol was changed to a secondary benzylic alcohol and the attachment to the resin was through an alkyl chain as opposed to an amide function. Linker 20 was used for the production of carboxylic acids or carbohydrates. A second example... 

In an extension to the xanthenyl theme, the benzyl hydrogen was replaced with a substituted / -methoxyphenyl ring to give linker 35 (Scheme 10) [41]. Peptide amides were cleaved rapidly and in high purity with TFA-DCM (1 9) for 15 min or as a protected fragment with TFA-DCM (1 99) for 3-10 min. 

Aryl hydrazide linker 38 stable to both acid and base was utilized in SPPS [46], Treatment of the resin with a copper(II) catalyst in the presence of a base and nucleophile gave the corresponding acid, amide, or ester (Scheme 13). 

Contrary to an alkoxy benzene scaffold, secondary amides were generated via novel aldehyde linker 43 based upon an indole scaffold (Scheme 15) [52]. The indole resin was prepared from indole-3-carboxy-aldehyde in two steps and reacted with amines under reductive conditions to generate resin-bound secondary amines. Treatment of the resin with... 

MAMP (Merrifield, Alpha-MethoxyPhenyl) resin 44 is an alternative to aldehyde linkers to construct TV-substituted amides [53], Nucleophilic displacement of the benzylic chloride with an amine followed by acylation yielded a secondary amide which was released upon a low ( 10%) concentration of TFA (Scheme 16). 

Cleavage of all the linkers described above provide a functional group (carboxylic acid, amide, amine, etc) at the anchoring position. Silyl-based handles 71,72, and 73 as well as germanium-based handle 74 insert a C-H bond at the anchoring position and are referred to as traceless (Fig. 15) [82-...
