Method for analysis of polymer-supported organic compounds using mass spectrometry direct insertion

Versatile method for the detection of covalently bound substrates on solid supports by DART mass spectrometry

Analysis of substrates directly on solid phase resins without the need for separate cleavage conditions remains an outstanding challenge in the field of solid phase synthesis. We now present the first example of simultaneous cleavage and mass spectrometric analysis of peptides from solid supports using direct analysis in real time (DART) mass spectrometry. We have shown that this method is compatible with a diverse array of solid phase resins and is suitable for analysis of both peptides and organic substrates.

Benzene-1,3,5-triyl tris-(methane-sulfonate)

In the mol-ecule of the title compound, C(9)H(12)O(9)S(3), the two methanesulfonate groups re located one above and one below the ring plane. The C-O-S angle range is 119.3 (2)-121.1 (2)°. This conformation is different from that of the benzene analog 1,2,5-tris-(p-toluene-sulfonate), which is a three-legged 'table' with all fragments of the p-toluene-sulfonate on top of the benzene ring. In the crystal, the supra-molecular aggregation is completed by the presence of C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

Library Preparation of Derivatives of 1,4,10,13-Tetraoxa-7,16-diaza-cycloctadecane and Their Fluorescence Behavior for Signaling Purposes

In the present work, we report the library preparation on solid supports of 20 derivatives of 1,4,10,13-tetraoxa-7,15-diaza-cycloctadecane 1(a-e)(w,x,y,z) carrying a fluorescent dansyl group. The sensing fluorescence behavior of these materials toward alkali and alkali earth metal ions was studied by packing the beads into a conventional flow-through cell in a FIA (flow injection analysis) approach. The fluorescence emission of these materials' responses shows a fluorescence increase to Li+, Na+, K+, NH4+, Ca2+, and Mg2+ with maximum sensitivity for Mg2+ over the rest of the ions. The analytical potential of these materials is outlined, and the sensing response mechanism, based on a photoinduced electron-transfer process, is proposed.

Direct Mass Spectrometric Monitoring of Solid Phase Organic Syntheses

Direct on-bead monitoring of solid-phase reactions is possible with soft laser desorption time-of-flight mass spectrometry (SLD-TOF MS) without prior cleavage from the resin if photocleavable phenacyl ester or o-nitroveratryl linker groups are employed.
