Solid phase synthesis of 1-substituted pyroglutamates

Solid-phase parallel synthesis of drug-like artificial 2H-benzopyran libraries

This review covers the construction of drug-like 2H-benzopyrans and related libraries using solid-phase parallel synthesis. In this context, the preparation of substituted benzopyrans such as mono-, di- and trisubstituted benzopyran derivatives and additional ring-fused benzopyrans such as benzopyranoisoxazoles, benzopyranopyrazoles, six-membered ring-fused benzopyrans, and polycyclic benzopyrans are highlighted.

Construction of 6-amino-2,2-dimethyl-3,4,6-trisubstituted-2H-1-benzopyran library by solid phase synthesis

We report the solid-phase library construction of 2000 analogues of 6-amino-2,2-dimethyl-3,4,6-trisubstituted-2H-1-benzopyran. The polymer-bound hydroxyalkoxychromanes 5, produced by nucleophilic reactions with various alcohols on epoxides generated in situ, served as key intermediates for subsequent diversification. Further reactions on these hydroxyalkoxychromanes 5 with various electrophiles, such as alkyl halides and acid halides, produced the desired 6-amino-2,2-dimethyl-3,4,6-trisubstituted-2H-1-benzopyran analogues 9, 10, and 11. The progress of reactions could be monitored as solid-bound intermediates by ATR-FTIR or HR-MAS-NMR spectroscopy. The final compounds, obtained in good yields and high purity upon cleavage from the resins, were characterized by LC/MS, HRMS, (1)H NMR, and (13)C NMR spectroscopy.
