The preparation of an acylsulfonamide library is described using resin
bound EDC (1-(3 dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide). A polymer
supported sulfonic acid (A-15) is used as a scavenger to remove dimeth
ylaminopyridine and purification only involves filtration of the react
ion mixture. This method provides the acylsulfonamides products in goo
d yields and purity. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserve
