Abstract: New methodologies for library synthesis have been
developed. They are based on new carboncarbon bond-formation reactions
in the solid-phase and organic synthesis using polymer-supported catalysts.
We have immobilized alkyl glyoxylate equivalents onto resins and prepared
novel polymer-supported imines. We have also developed unprecedented
polymer-supported catalysts such as microencapsulated scandium trifluoromethanesulfonate
[MC Sc(OTf)3], osmium tetroxide (MC OsO4), and palladium triphenylphosphine
[MC Pd(PPh3)] for high-throughput synthesis.
