Accelerated Submonomer Solid-Phase Synthesis of Peptoids Incorporating Multiple Substituted <i>N</i>-Aryl Glycine Monomers
Bibliographic record
Abstract
N-Aryl glycines are a chemically diverse class of peptoid monomers that have strong structure-inducing propensities. Yet their use has been limited due to the sluggish reactivity of the weakly nucleophilic aniline submonomers. Here, we report up to a 76-fold rate acceleration of the displacement reaction using aniline submonomers in solid-phase peptoid synthesis. This is achieved by adding halophilic silver salts to the displacement reaction, facilitating bromide abstraction and AgBr precipitation. Mechanistic insight derived from analysis of a series of 15 substituted anilines reveals that the silver-mediated reaction proceeds through a transition state that has considerably less positive charge buildup on the incoming nucleophile and an enhanced leaving group. This straightforward enhancement to the submonomer method enables the rapid room temperature synthesis of a wide variety of N-aryl glycine-rich peptoid oligomers, possessing both electron-withdrawing and -donating substituents, in good yields.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
