44 mmol) in pyridine (150 mL) was added dropwise to the above
stirring solution. After the addition, the reaction mixture was
allowed to reach room temperature (∼4 h) and continued stirring
for overnight. TLC [hexanes/ethyl acetate (EtOAc) 3:1 contain-
ing 0.5% triethylamine(TEA)] indicated completion of the reac-
tion. Pyridine was evaporated to dryness, residue was dissolved in
EtOAc (500 mL) and washed successively with saturated NH4Cl
solution (500 mL) and brine (500 mL) solution. EtOAc layer was
dried over anhydrous MgSO4 and rotoevaporated to dryness.
The residue was purified on silica gel flash column chromato-
graphy using hexane/EtOAc (3:1) containing 0.5% TEA to give
bis-DMT alcohol 2a-c,e as a white foam.
added in portions to a stirring solution of bis-DMT alcohol 2
(5 mmol) and DMAP (0.61 g, 5 mmol) in dry pyridine (50 mL) at
room temperature. The reaction mixture was stirred for over-
night and rotoevaporated to dryness. The residue was dissolved
in DCM (250 mL) and successively washed with ice cold 10%
citric acid solution (2 ꢀ 250 mL) and water (250 mL). The DCM
layer was dried over anhydrous MgSO4, concentrated to 50 mL
volume using rotoevaporator, and purified on silica gel flash
column chromatography using 0 f 2% methanol in DCM
containing 0.5% TEA. Pure product was white foam obtained
as triethylammonium salt of succinate.

added to controlled-pore glass solid support (25 g), and the
slurry was shaken for 24 h at room temperature. Solution was
filtered off, and the solid support was washed with acetonitrile
