Abstract: A process for the attachment of aromatic or heteroaromatic rings to a polymeric support via a silyl ether linkage is described. Such process involves the synthesis of a chlorodialkyl aryl or heteroarylsilane which is then coupled to a polymeric support via a hydroxyl functionality to form a polymer-bound silyl ether. Further modification provides a polymer-bound small organic molecule that is cleaved from the polymeric support under mild conditions to give an aryl or heteroaryl silanol or a compound in which the aryl or heteroaryl carbon-silicon bond is replaced with a carbon-hydrogen, carbon-halogen, carbon-hydroxyl, carbon-sulfur, or carbon—carbon bond. Such methods are useful for the preparation of a library of diverse aromatic and heteroaromatic compounds by both manual and automated synthesis.
