Significance

The first example of an automated oligo(p-benzamide) (OPBA) synthesis was demonstrated by use of a conventional peptide synthesizer employing a standard Fmoc-peptide synthesis protocol. Thus, an amino acid derivative 1 and Wang resin were subjected to the automatic peptide synthesizer to give a Wang resin supported OPBA heptamer 3g. Esterifcation of 3g with 4-pentynoyl chloride followed by cyclization with PEG-supported azide gave a Wang resin-PEG-supported OPBA heptamer 4. Acidic treatment of 4 afforded a PEG-supported OPBA heptamer 5.
