20. Library synthesis (15 lmol-scale). After checking the solubility of reagents,
0.25 M solutions of keto-acids and binucleophiles are prepared in water or in a
mixture of water and ethanol (50/50). The drying-oven is preheated and the
reagents stock-solutions are placed on the liquid-handling system. In each
well, 60 lL (15 lmol) of the solution of binucleophiles are deposited by the
liquid-handling system. CAUTION: It is necessary to change the value of the
dispense speed between the solution of water and the solution with ethanol to
avoid projections. Tips are then washed. In each well, 60 lL (15 lmol) of the
solution of keto-acids are deposited by the liquid-handling system. Then, the
96-well plate is placed on the stove at 100 °C. After 16 h, the plate is removed
from the stove. The completion of the reaction is checked by LCMS.
