Solid-phase synthesis of a tyrphostin ether library

The solid-phase synthesis of a 4500-member (30 x 15 x 10) tyrphostin library is demonstrated utilizing the Irori-directed sorting system. Fmoc-protected PL-Rink resin was used as the solid support. After Fmoc-deprotection, aryl aldehydes were attached to the resin through reductive amination. Acylation of the resulting secondary amines with cyanoacetic acid was followed by a Knoevenagel condensation with phenolic aldehydes. Mitsunobu coupling of primary alcohols to the resin-bound phenols yielded the final library of compounds 1.     

Sampled-data minimumH ∞-norm regulation of linear continuous-time systems using multirate-output controllers

This paper deals with the problem of designing multirate-output contrlleers for sampled-dataH -optimal control of linear continuous-time systems. Two formulations of the problem are studied. In the first, the intersample behavior of the disturbance and the controlled output signals is not considered, whereas in the second the continuous-time nature of these signals is taken into account. It is shown that, in both cases and unter appropriate conditions, it is plausible to reduce the repective initial problem to an associated discrete-timeH -optimization problem for which a fictitious static state feedback controller is to be designed. This fact has a beneficial influence on the theoretical and numerical complexity of the problem, since only one algebraic Riccati equation is to be solved here, as compared to two algebraic Riccati equations needed in known techniques concerning theH -optimization problem with dynamic measurement feedback.The work described in this paper has been partially funded by the General Secretariat for Research and Technology of the Greek Ministry of Industry, Research, and Technology and by the Heracles General Cement Company of Greece.
