This review covers recent results in the area of solid phase organometallic chemistry during the period 2000–2006. The focus is on carbon–carbon bond formation, but other aspects of organometallic reactions are also discussed. This includes the use of metal complexes as linkers, synthesis of biologically active compounds and complex natural product analogues, development of diversifying cleavage strategies,...
Polyamines in naturally occurring compounds are biologically active molecules that do not display a great diversity but are very abundant in almost all organisms. Their functions comprise antibiotics, immunosuppressants, toxins, and many others. In most biologically active compounds the polyamine chain is coupled to other functionalities making the polyamine an excellent template for solid phase chemistry...
One major challenge in combinatorial chemistry is to find biologically relevant starting points in the chemical universe around which compound libraries should be produced. Natural products represent such biologically validated starting points. Progress in Solid-Phase Organic Synthesis (SPOS) has enabled now the combination of natural product synthesis with combinatorial methods. Two strategies can...
Being unable to penetrate the cell membrane, peptide hormones and neuropeptides achieve their effects by interaction with transmembrane receptors which transmit the signal into the cell. G protein-coupled receptors occur ubiquitously in eukaryotes and mediate a multitude of biological functions. The development of drugs targeting these receptors to treat diseases rising from a dysfunction requires...
Of the three classes of biopolymers—nucleic acids, proteins and glycoconjugates, nucleic acids and proteins have seen the most breakthroughs in understanding their biological role, in part due to their ready availability. The automation of oligonucleotide and peptide synthesis has been fruitful in providing biologists and biochemists with pure, well-defined structures. This work reviews the recent...
In the continuous drive to increase screening throughput and reduce sample requirement, microarray-based technologies have risen to the occasion. In the past 7 years, a number of new methodologies have been developed for preparing small molecule microarrays from combinatorial and natural product libraries with the goal of identifying new interactions or enzymatic activities. Recent advances and applications...
