Polymer-assisted, multi-step solution phase synthesis and biological screening of histone deacetylase inhibitors.

The polymer-assisted solution phase synthesis (PASP) of an array of histone deacetylase (HDAc) inhibitors is described. HDAc inhibitors have considerable potential as new anti-proliferative agents. Selected compounds were shown to inhibit both human endothelial cell proliferation, and the formation of tubules (neovascularisation) in an in vitro model of angiogenesis.

A highly automated, polymer-assisted strategy for the preparation of 2-alkylthiobenzimidazoles and N,N'-dialkylbenzimidazolin-2-ones.

A multistep, polymer-assisted solution phase strategy for the highly automated (auto-PASP) synthesis of 2-alkylthiobenzimidazole and N,N'-dialkylbenzimidazolin-2-one libraries is presented. The approach incorporates in-line purification techniques to afford library products directly with high purities and is exemplified by the preparation of a 96-member 2-alkylthiobenzimidazoline library 1[1-12,1-8] and a 72-member N,N'-dialkylbenzimidazolin-2-one library 9[1-12,1-6].

Fully automated polymer-assisted synthesis of 1,5-biaryl pyrazoles.

The polymer-assisted solution-phase (PASP) synthesis of a 192-member 2-D array of 1,5-biaryl pyrazoles 4[1-12,1-16] is reported. The synthesis was performed in a fully automated manner using a multiprobe top-filtration robot and incorporates a "catch and release" step to afford library compounds directly in high yield and purity.
