Dual linker with a reference cleavage site for information rich analysis of polymer-supported transformations

Two dual linker systems with specific reference cleavage sites were designed and synthesized to accelerate and simplify development and optimization of reaction conditions for solid-phase synthesis. The dual linker allows simple evaluation of cleavage rate of polymer-supported compounds from the linker and, at the same time, ensures that all resin-bound components are cleaved from the solid support. The dual linker 4 was assembled from two Wang linkers connected by a three carbon spacer. The linker 9 was synthesized using the PAL and HMPB linkers.
