Abstract: A method is provided for quantitatively monitoring the deprotection and coupling reactions employed in the solid phase synthesis of peptides. The method entails synthesizing a peptide on a support matrix that has a first marker associated therewith. The amino acids employed in the peptide synthesis procedure have a second marker attached thereto, which can be the blocking group used for the amino acid. After the coupling or deprotection step a portion of the support matrix is processed to release first and second identifers from the first and second markers, respectively. The completeness of the coupling or deprotection step can be determined by comparing the relative amounts of the detected first and second identifiers. Novel compositions of matter are used in or produced during this method, including support matrixes having pyrolyzable markers attached thereto.
