Solid supports polystyrene resins

Low cross-linked polystyrene resins (1% divinylbenzene) is probably the most popular solid support. These resins swell to 2-6 times their original volume depending on the solvent used. Swollen resin, after removal of solvent and without excessive drying, remains in a rubbery state and can be easily flattened for FTIR study in the transmission mode. The support-bound compound should be washed free of reagent and solvent.

For quantitative analysis of solid supported thiol residues on free macroporous or PEG grafts, Ellman s reagent has been used [5,5 -dithio-hfr-(2-nitrobenzoic acid]. However only qualitative information can be gained using lightly crosslinked polystyrene resins [Badyal et al. Tetrahedron Lett 42 8531 2007]. 

Amine bound to a Wang-polystyrene resin 381 was acylated with 4-oxo-4Ff-pyrido[l,2-u]pyrazine-3-carboxylic acid in the presence of bromotrispyrrolidinophosphonium hexafluorophosphate and /-Pr2NEt in A-methylpyrrolidone (98MIP16). l-(4-Cyclohexyl-4-r / r-butylaminocarbo-nyl-l-piperidyl)-2-(4-fluorophenyl)ethylamine was acylated with perhydro-pyrido[l,2-u]pyrazine-3-carboxylic acid (01MIP19). An amino group of a macrocyclic compound attached to a solid support was acylated with... 

In place of N-methylimidazole (Melm), only dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) could be substituted. The solid-supported amines piperidinomethyl- or morpholinomethyl polystyrene resins, pyridine, and tertiary amines like triethylamine andN-methylmorpholine were not effective. 

As for the solid support, several polymer-supported amines were tested (Fig. 2). For either the pyrazole and isoxazole synthesis, the best results were given by aniline-functionalized cellulose, which has also the advantage of a relatively low cost. For the 2-aminopyrimidine library, polystyrene-based piperazine and piperidine gave products with a much higher purity compared with other secondary non-cyclic or primary amines, hi both cases, the resins could be reused for up to four times before degradation in their behavior was observed. This reusability could be further enhanced (up to 10 cycles for cellulose-based aniline) when the microwave-assisted protocols were used. 

Abstract. The direct scale-up of a solid-phase synthesis has been demonstrated with 4-(2-amino-6-phenylpyrimidin-4-yl)benzamide and an arylsulfonamido-substituted hydroxamic acid derivative as examples. These compounds were obtained through combinatorial chemistry and solution-phase synthesis was used in parallel to provide a comparison. By applying highly loaded polystyrene-derived resins as the solid support, a good ratio between the product and the starting resin is achieved. We have demonstrated that the synthesis can be scaled up directly on the solid support, successfully providing the desired compounds easily and quickly in sufficient quantities for early development demands. 

A key element in the original Merriheld procedure of solid-phase synthesis is the solid support system. That system consists of two parts a resin head and a. linker, an organic compound used to join the hrst amino acid to the resin head. The resin beads used by Merriheld are small spherical objects made of cross-linked polystyrene. This material consists primarily of the polymer polystyrene whose linear molecules are linked to each other at various positions by the addition of divinylhenzene (CH2 = CHCgH jCH =CH2). The hnal cross-linked material is relatively rigid, with enough hexihility to permit... 

New polymeric solid supports have been devised, which include macroporous styrene-divinylbenzene containing large fixed pores, porous glass beads, insoluble carbohydrate polymers, poly(ethylene oxide), cross-linked derivatives of polyacrylamide resins, and graft copolymers of polystyrene and poly(ethylene oxide). The last two have been the most effective and widely used and have competed well with the original copoly(styrene-divi-nylbenzene) beads. 

Ellman used silyl chemistry for the direct linkage of aromatics onto the solid support by converting an aryl bromide to aryl lithium and reacting this with a silyl resin.90 It is the production of the silyl resin that is of interest in the context of this review, since an in situ Suzuki coupling was used to link the allyl silane to bromomethyl polystyrene resin (Scheme 40). 9-BBN is used to carry out the regioselective hydroboration, and this is linked to the resin with palladium catalysis in the usual way. After brief exposure of this...
