Peptide-based amino-alcohol ligands

Different polyethylene glycol polymers were used in various papers and proved to be very reliable and useful for different classes of molecules their use for the synthesis of peptides [180, 181], of peptidomimetics [182] and of oligosaccharide libraries [183] was reported as the development and the use of a new PEG-linked traceless linker [184, 185], the selection of ligands for asymmetric Sharpless dihydroxylation [186-188], the use of PEG-linked triarylphosphines for LPCS requiring Mitsunobu or Staudinger conditions [189], the use of PEG-based supports to prepare a library of [l,4]oxazepine-7-ones [190] and the use of PEG-supported Schiff bases for the synthesis of a-substituted amino acids [191], Other examples of soluble polymers used for LPCS may include cellulose[192], polyacrylamide [193] polyvinyl alcohol [194, 195], various copolymers [196, 197] and NCPS [198-200]. Three excellent reviews [201-203] summarized the properties of PEG and other soluble polymers and their applications to the synthesis of peptides, oligonucleotides,... 

Amines and alcohols were readily functionalized with copper-based catalysts containing TpY ligands upon reaction of several diazo compounds under very mild conditions. In the case of the former, this strategy led to the formation of amino acids and peptides, the catalyst activity competing with that of the previous rhodium-based...
