Parallel Synthesis of Alkyl Tetrazole Derivatives Using Solid Support Chemistry

Abstract

The synthesis of several omega-chloroalkyl tetrazoles and their subsequent attachment to a solid support is described. Using an in situ Finkelstein reaction, a variety of nucleophiles were alkylated and then cleaved from the resin to give pure alkyl tetrazole derivatives. A sample library of 5 x 6 demonstrates the general utility of this sequence.
