A method for the synthesis of cyclic polyamines based on solid-phase chemistry is shown. Linear polyamines are stepwise synthesized on solid support from the center by repetitive alkylations at benzylic N-atoms. Cyclizations at the resins were effected conventionally by direct intramolecular SN2 reactions between sulfonyl-protected terminal amino groups and primary alkyl bromides or by intramolecular Mitsunobu reactions between sulphonamides ...
