The automated synthesis of hepta (p-benzamide) heterosequences on solid support using a modified peptide synthesizer is reported. The oligomers are synthesized from 4- aminobenzoic acid and 4-amino-2-(hexyloxy) benzoic acid, the latter carrying a solubilizing hexyl side chain. It is known from previous studies that both the unsubstituted hepta (p- benzamide) and the fully hexyloxy-substituted hepta (p-benzamide) are insoluble in all ...
