Solid-Supported Reagents in Organic Synthesis

The current interest in solid-phase organic synthesis has led to a renewed interest in a complementary technique in which solid supported reagents are used in solution phase chemistry. This technique obviates the need for attachment of the substrate to a solid-support, and enables the chemist to monitor the reactions using familiar analytical techniques. The purpose of this re- view is to increase awareness of the wide range of useful transformations which can be accom- plished using solid-supported reagents. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
