Abstract

Paramagnetic versions of the CLEAR supports were prepared by entrapment of magnetite particles during suspension polymerization of allylamine, trimethylolpropane ethoxylate (14/3 EO/OH) triacrylate, and trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate. Swelling studies in a broad range of solvents showed comparable swelling of magnetic beads and regular CLEAR beads. The application of the magnetic beads as the support in solid-phase synthesis of peptides (Leu-enkephalinamide, substance P, acyl carrier protein (65-74) amide, and amyloid beta-protein (34-42) amide) and small organic affinity ligands based on the s-triazine scaffold was demonstrated. Adequate stability of the beads and retention of their magnetic properties were observed throughout the synthesis steps.
