Eda and Kurth applied a similar solid-phase combinatorial strategy for synthesis of pyridinium, tetrahydropyridine, and piperidine frameworks as potential inhibitors of vesicular acetylcholine transporter. One member of the small library produced was prepared from amino-functionalized trityl resin reacting with a 4-phenyl Zincke salt to give resin-bound product 62 (Scheme 8.4.21). After ion exchange and cleavage from the resin, pyridinium 63 was isolated. Alternatively, borohydride reduction of 62 led to the 1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine 64, which could be hydrogenated to the corresponding piperidine 65. 

The adaptation of the Bischler-Napieralski reaction to solid-phase synthesis has been described independently by two different groups. Meutermans reported the transformation of Merrifield resin-bound phenylalanine derivatives 32 to dihydroisoquinolines 33 in the presence of POCI3. The products 34 were liberated from the support using mixtures of HF/p-cresol. In contrast, Kunzer conducted solid-phase Bischler-Napieralski reactions on a 2-hydroxyethyl polystyrene support using the aromatic ring of the substrate 35 as a point of attachment to the resin. The cyclized products 36 were cleaved from the support by reaction with i-butylamine or n-pentylamine to afford 37. 

One year later, Tietze and co-workers (97BMC1303) presented a general and straightforward method for the synthesis of diverse polymer-bound -keto esters starting from acid chlorides and Meldrum s acid. One such resin-bound y3-keto ester, 43, was treated with hydrazine hydrate in THF to afford resin-ffee N-2-unsubstituted pyrazolone 44 in 84% yield (Scheme 13). In the same paper, the synthesis of a large number of 4,5-disubstituted 2-phenyl-2,4-dihydro-37/-pyrazol-3-ones was reported. 

Treatment of resin-bound iminophosphorane 197 with an excess of solid CO2 and CS2 in a sealed glass tube, and with aryl isocyanates afforded I-OXO-, 1-thioxo- 198, and l-arylimino-l//-pyrido[l,2-c]pyrimidine-3-car-boxylates 199 (OlJMClOll). Reaction of iminophosphorane 200, derived from 2-(2-azidophenyl)pyridine with excess PPh3, yielded 6//-pyrido[l,2-c] quinazoline-6-thione (201). 

Preparation of Memfield resin-bound nitro acetates, which is a suitable bndding block for the development of combinatorial solid phase synthesis, is repotted. The anion of ethyl nitro acetate is generated in DMF by an electrochemical method using Pt cathode, magnesium rod anode, and tetrabutylairunonium bromide as an electrolyte. Alkylaton of this anion with alkyl hahdes gives mono-alkylated products in 80% yield." ...

When investigating the suitability of a particular resin-bound separations process, the following factors are often important (i) resin consumption (ii) solvent usage (iii) productivity-chemical, optical and volume yields (iv) total number of separations steps and (v) capital costs. For any particular process, these factors differ in their relative importance. However, when evaluating a new separations method it is useful to examine each of these factors. The nonchromatographic separation method... 

The feasibility of multistep natural product total synthesis via solid-phase methodology, and its application to combinatorial chemistry, was first demonstrated by Nicolaou and coworkers in epothilone synthesis and in the generation of an epothilone library [152]. The traceless release of TBS-protected epoC 361 by RCM of resin-bound precursor 360 (Scheme 69) is an early and most prominent example for the strategy outlined in Fig. 11a. 

To generate molecular libraries, a series of 5-oxo-2-azabicyclo[2.2.2]octane and triaza analogs were prepared via a stereospecific Diels-Alder reaction by reacting Wang-resin-bound diene 35 with a variety of dienophiles [28]. After removing the solid support with a strong acid, adducts 36 were isolated examples of reactions that have furnished the best yields are reported in Scheme 4.6. 

A constant interest in the development of new rapid methodologies for the preparation of oxazole hbraries is motivated by their presence in numerous biologically active natural products. Janda and coworkers were hrst to show that oxazoles can be obtained by microwave-assisted treatment of polymer-bound a-acylamino-/f-ketoesters with Burgess reagent [68]. Hydroxybutyl-functionalized /anda/el resin was used for this investigation, with key steps being monitored by on-bead FT-IR. First, a resin-bound acetoacetate was pre-... 

Giacomelli et al. constructed 3-propylisoxazole-5-yl-methanol via a [3-1-2] cycioaddition (Fig. 15) [158]. Nitrobutane was converted to nitrile oxide in the presence of 4-(4,6-dimethoxy [1,3,5]triazin-2-yl)-4-methylmorpholinium chloride (DMTMM) and catalytic 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP). Trityl chloride resin-bound propargyl alcohol was employed as the dipolarophile to trap the nitrile oxide, forming the cyclo adduct isoxazole ring under unusually mild conditions (i.e., microwave irradiation at 80 °C for five times 1 min). Disappearance of the starting material was monitored by FT-IR.

The imidazole ring is a privileged structure in medicinal chemistry since it is found in the core structure of a wide range of pharmaceutically active compounds efficient methods for the preparation of substituted imidazole libraries are therefore of great interest. Recently, a rapid synthetic route to imidazole-4-carboxylic acids using Wang resin was reported by Henkel (Fig. 17) [64]. An excess aliphatic or aromatic amine was added to the commercially available Wang-resin-bound 3-Ar,M-(dimethylamino)isocyano-acrylate, and the mixture was heated in a sealed vial with microwave irradi-... 

The preparation of purine derivatives substituted at the C-2 position via amine displacement of a halogen is known as a difficult reaction step requiring several days of reaction time. However, Al-Obeidi and coworkers have recently prepared 2,6,9-trisubstituted purines on soUd-phase by employing a synthetic route in which the critical step was performed with microwave irradiation (Fig. 37) [62]. PS resin-bound 2-iodosubstituted purine was treated with diethanolamine or propanolamine in NMP with microwave irradiation at 200 °C for 30 min. Trifluoroacetic acid-mediated cleavage resulted in the 2-amino substituted purines in 45-59% yields and 77-89% purities. 

An alternative reported in the same publication involves the in situ conversion of the carboxylic acids to the corresponding acyl chlorides using PS-PPh3 and CCI3CN (THE, 10 °C, 5 min) before treatment with the amidoxime in the presence of DIEA (THE, 150 °C, 15 min). The resin-bound phosphine not interfering with the second step, and THF being the best solvent for both steps, the two-steps sequence could be performed one-pot with yields comparable to those obtained using the HBTU/PS-BEMP combination (Scheme 12). 

The resin-bound reagents thus obtained were reacted with a variety of nucleophiles to give different heterocycles (Scheme 13). So, reaction with hydrazine or hydroxylamine gave respectively pyrazoles and isoxazoles in excellent yields (94-99%, 34 examples) and excellent purities (> 95%). Reaction with guanidines afforded 2-aminopyrimidines.

AT-acetyltryptamines could be obtained via microwave-assisted transition-metal-catalyzed reactions on resin bound 3-[2-(acetylamino)ethyl]-2-iodo-lH-indole-5-carboxamide. While acceptable reaction conditions for the application of microwave irradiation have been identified for Stille heteroaryla-tion reactions, the related Suzuki protocol on the same substrate gave poor results, since at a constant power of 60 W, no full conversion (50-60%) of resin-bound 3-[2-(acetylamino)ethyl]-2-iodo-lH-indole-5-carboxamide could be obtained even when two consecutive cross-coupling reaction cycles (involving complete removal of reagents and by-products by washing off the resin) were used (Scheme 36). Also under conventional heating at 110 °C, and otherwise identical conditions, the Suzuki reactions proved to be difficult since two cross-coupling reaction cycles of 24 h had to be used to achieve full conversion.
