Abstract: With the emergence of high-throughput screening in
the pharmaceutical industry over a decade ago, synthetic chemists were
faced with the challenge of preparing large collections of molecules
to satisfy the demand for new screening compounds. The unique ex-
ploratory power of multicomponent reactions such as the Biginelli three-component
reaction was soon recognized to be extremely valuable to produce compound
libraries in a time- and
cost-effective manner. The present review summarizes synthetic advances
from our laboratories for the construction of Biginelli libraries via
solution-and solid-phase strategies that
are amenable to a high-throughput or combinatorial format.
