A variety of cleavage conditions have been reported for the release of amines from a solid support. Triazene linker 52 prepared from Merrifield resin in three steps was used for the solid-phase synthesis of aliphatic amines (Scheme 22) [61]. The triazenes were stable to basic conditions and the amino products were released in high yields upon treatment with mild acids. Alternatively, base labile linker 53 synthesized from a-bromo-p-toluic acid in two steps was used to anchor amino functions (Scheme 23) [62]. Cleavage was accomplished by oxidation of the thioether to the sulfone with m-chloroperbenzoic acid followed by 13-elimination with a 10% solution of NH4OH in 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol. A linker based on l-(4,4 -dimethyl-2,6-dioxocyclohexylidene)ethyl (Dde) primary amine protecting group was developed for attaching amino functions (Scheme 24) [65]. Linker 54 was stable to both acidic and basic conditions and the final products were cleaved from the resin by treatment with hydrazine or transamination with ra-propylamine. 

A combination of the SNAr feature and the coordination ability of a copper complex has led to the development of a new O-arylation method that makes use of a triazene as an activating and directing group (Equation (2)).32,33 This protocol, though necessitating a three-step removal sequence of the triazene moiety, has been successfully applied to the total synthesis of vancomycin1 6 and extended to a solid-phase synthesis in which the triazene unit serves as an anchor to the resin.37... 

The T2 linker has recently been shown to be a versatile backbone amide anchor. Immobilized disubstituted triazenes were acylated with carboxylic acid anhydrides or chlorides to give amide derivatives. These amides were cleaved under very mild conditions using trimethyl chlorosilane. This sequence thus employs the T2 system as backbone amine linker and was demonstrated in the automated library synthesis of substituted amide derivatives.54...
