Abstract
A new polymer-supported urea (P-DMI) (4)
was prepared as a precursor for a new heterogeneous dehydrating
agent, polymer-supported chloroamidinium chloride (P-DMC) (5). Application of 4 to
esterification and amidation, after conversion to 5,
efficiently afforded dehydrated products. No epimerization was practically
observed in peptide synthesis. Compound 4 (P-DMI) was
recovered as a re-useable form by simple filtration.
Key words
polymer-supported reagent - esterification - amidation - peptide synthesis - recyclability

Reaction time can be shortened from
3 d to 1 d by use of the corresponding iodide in place of the 4-chloromethyl polystyrene
resin.

Conversion of the starting polystyrene
derivative to P-DMI (4) was estimated by
relative peak ratio between carbonyl (at δ = 162
ppm) and aromatic carbon absorptions (at δ = 128 ppm)
in the product using solid 13C NMR
technique, in addition to combustion analysis. Details will be reported elsewhere.

Typical Procedure
(entries 2 and 3 in Table 1):
A mixture of P-DMI(4) (984 mg) and oxalyl chloride
(1.71
mmol) in benzene (10 mL) was refluxed for 24 h, cooled to r.t. and
evaporated in vacuo to yield crude P-DMC (5)
(1.19 g, 88% conversion).
To a suspension of crude 5 (1.19 g), dihydrocinnamic acid (1.0 mmol)
in CH2Cl2 (10 mL) were added t-butyl
alcohol (1.0 mmol) and Et3N (5.0 mmol), and then the
suspension was stirred at r.t. for 48 h. The polymer was recovered
by filtration and washing with CH2Cl2. The
filtrate and washings were combined, washed with 1 N HCl, sat. NaHCO3,
H2O and sat. NaCl, dried ( over MgSO4), and evaporated.
Purification of the crude product by distillation (bp 110 °C/2.0
mmHg) yielded the corresponding ester, 166 mg (80%), as
a colorless oil. The recovered 4 was successively
washed with 1 N HCl, H2O, MeOH, and CH2Cl2,
and dried at 40 °C.
Esterification of
dihydrocinnamic acid with t-butyl alcohol using
a recycled 4, after chlorination, under
the same conditions described above yielded t-butyl
dihydro-cinnamate in 81% yield.

Reaction under heating led to the formation
of the corresponding polymer-bound guanidine
[8]
as
a side product, which could be estimated in ca. 15% yield
by FT-IR.
DMC (2)
and its related chloroamidines could be reacted with primary and
secondary amines to yield the corresponding guanidines and guanidinium
salts, respectively. On the former see:
