Preface
Duringthelasttwodecades,thepharmaceuticalindustryhasbeenunderenormous
and ever-increasing pressure from a variety of interest groups to enhance the
productivity and effectiveness of drug discovery and development. Although, the
collective R&D budget for the industry has been increasing exponentially for the
pasttwentyyears,thenumbersofnewchemicalentitiesthatreachthemarkethave
remained relatively constant during this same time period. Much of the increased
investment has been in a variety of technologies focused on enhancing early drug
discovery, such as high throughput screening, combinatorial chemistry, parallel
synthesis, genomics, and automation to name just a few. Combinatorial and high
throughput parallel synthesis chemistry have been the most recent potential levers
developed to bridge the early discovery productivity gap. Although initial debate
focused on the merits and limitations of split-and-mix vs. spatially addressable
arrays or solid vs. solution phase approaches, over the last few years the emphasis
has shifted to purification and characterization support as an integral part of the
synthesisprocess.
Thetraditionalmedicinalchemistryapproachofmakingonetotencompoundsin
parallelwithsignificantquantitiesneverchallengedtheavailableanalyticalmethods
for analysis and characterization. A typical round bottom flask synthesis produced
enoughmaterialforNMRanalysis,whichisthepreferredcharacterizationtechnique
of the synthetic chemist. However, with the introduction of mix-and-split and
spatially addressable formats that now routinely generated 100 to 10,000 analogs
from a scaffold, the analytical approach became a significant issue and the
traditional medicinal chemistry approach of purifying and characterizing each
compound synthesized was challenged because the tried and true analysis
techniques like NMR could not initially be applied in a high throughput mode.
Theoverridingneedtocorrelate biological activity withmolecularstructureeither
