A 2000-member library of benzopyran analogues was prepared by using a solid-phase synthesis protocol. Polymer-bound 6-alkylaminobenzopyrans
7 were synthesized as part of a first generation diversification step by employing reactions of a variety of alkyl halides with the amine
6. Transformations of the resinbound intermediates
8 formed in this manner by reactions with acid halides, sulfonyl chlorides, and isocyanates leads to introduction of the second level of diversification found in the series of 6-alkylamino-2-(functionalized-aminomethyl)-2-methyl-2
H-1-benzopyran analogues
