Modifying polarity
Amine + HCl => hydrochloride salt (ionic, more soluble)
Prozac
Modifying polarity
Carb. Acid + NaOH => Sodium salt (ionic, more soluble)

What is Combinatorial Chemistry?
• Is an approach that provides efficient
synthesis of a large collection of molecules
• Screening of libraries of related compounds to
isolate the molecule of desirable property
• Used in both academia and industries to
generate huge libraries of compounds that
have important biological properties

Solid Phase Library
In 1991s, Houghten & Lam: synthesis of a huge peptide library
20 amino acids
Solid-phase synthesis
202 = 400 dipeptides
DNA: fully automatic (solution)
peptide
203 = 8000 tripeptides
204
= 160,000 tetrapeptides

small molecule (drug-like)
ln 1992, Jon Ellman: synthesis of non-peptide drug-like molecules by solid
phase synthesis
Parallel synthesis

On a teflon reaction block

Large number of wells

Add different parts at each step

Common conditions
12-well reaction block
Add Scaffold to each well
