Abstract
The reaction between maleimides and resin-linked diene-polyamides allows the latter to be used in the preparation of conjugates. Conjugation takes place by reacting the insoluble, hydrophobic diene component either with water-soluble dienophiles or with dienophiles requiring mixtures of water and organic solvents. Experimental conditions can be adjusted to furnish the target conjugate in good yield with no need of adding large excesses of soluble reagent. In case protected maleimides are used, maleimide deprotection and Diels-Alder cycloaddition can be simultaneously carried out to render conjugates with different linking positions. On-resin conjugation is followed by an acidic treatment that removes the polyamide protecting groups with no harm to the cycloadduct, in contrast with the unreacted diene that is indeed degraded under these conditions. Cycloadducts incorporating suitable functional groups can undergo subsequent additional conjugation reactions in solution to furnish double conjugates.
