  • Publication number: 20050100968
    Abstract: The present invention provides a variety of methods for synthesizing, encoding and decoding compounds in a combinatorial library. One step or cycle in the synthetic methods of the invention is a self-encoding step in which different pairs of components, each pair with a known and different molecular weight difference, are reacted with supports, whereby two compounds differing in molecular weight are formed on each support. The molecular weight difference between the two compounds on the support encodes for a particular component pair. Libraries of compounds formed according to the methods of the invention are also provided.
