Solid-phase/solution-phase combinatorial synthesis of neuroimmunophilin ligands.

摘要

A novel solid-phase/solution-phase strategy for the synthesis of neuroimmunophilin ligands based on GPI 1046 was developed. The synthesis employs a solid-phase esterification strategy followed by a solution-phase pyruvic amide formation to produce multi-milligram quantities of discrete compounds for assay. The protocol was applied to a production library of 880 discrete compounds. A highlight of the strategy is an aqueous extractive purification of the final compounds using a novel liquid/ice extraction system developed for high throughput.
