Solid Phase Research

[Alkylight]

Does anyone know if there is any scope for the developement of new drugs using solid phase chemistry.  I was thinking of anchoring the basic amphetamine subunit to the solid phase using a linker known as the 'bromo WANG' linker.  Basically just a resin bound benzylbromide.  I have a bit of experience with solid phase organic chemistry.  I have been playing with this idea for a little while now and I was wondering if it has any worth.  Could a whole new library of say amphetamine type drugs be built up this way??
