Solid phase synthesis of tertiary amines on amide REM resins: Grignard and metal hydride compatible resins.

Four new amide REM resins (AM REM 2-5) are described, and their use is illustrated for the synthesis of tertiary amines 6-9 and 13-16. Amide REM resins 4 and 5, which have a phenyl ring attached to the amide nitrogen, are found to give superior product yields and purities, and the resins are stable to a wider range of reagents and conditions compared to REM resin 1.
