Abstract
Natural polyamines are ubiquitous biomolecules present in all living cells. These cationic compounds play essential roles in both cell growth and differentiation and are known to interact in complex ways with polyanionic biomolecules. Consequently, there is significant interest in expanding nature's polyamine diversity using combinatorial synthesis and screening strategies. This article describes an efficient split-pool solid-phase synthetic strategy toward the generation of encoded libraries of polyamines via the exhaustive borane-promoted reduction of trityl-linked, resin-bound polyamides. Model structural libraries of tetra- and pentaamines were designed from a set of geometrically diverse amino acid building blocks. To encode the libraries, a partial termination synthesis approach was employed at the polyamide stage, allowing each library to be analyzed from single beads by HPLC/ESMS under two sets of conditions featuring both pH extremes. Determination of the sequence of polyamine residues was simply achieved by the mass differences observed between the full oligomers and the terminated ones. Both polystyrene- and TentaGel-supported libraries, including a library of 4913 pentaamines, were prepared and successfully decoded. For the TentaGel-supported libraries, suitable for on-bead aqueous screening of biomolecules, a novel trityl-derivatized resin was prepared in which the trityl group is anchored to the poly(ethylene glycol) chains via a methylene group. The resulting resin is much more resistant than other commercially available polystyrene-poly(ethylene glycol) trityl resins to the harsh borane reduction conditions required. Two workup conditions for the cleavage of the resultant borane-amine adducts were evaluated on the TentaGel bound polyamide 14. Although the two methods showed a comparable efficiency when using the polystyrene support, with 14 it was found that the piperidine-exchange method afforded polyamines of higher purity than the iodine-based oxidative method previously developed in our laboratory.

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 it
