Abstract
A synthetic strategy for the creation of large scale chemical diversity. Solid-phase chemistry, photolabile protecting groups, and photolithography are used to achieve light-directed spatially-addressable parallel chemical synthesis. In one particular embodiment, an array of rotated cyclic polymers is formed. In another embodiment, an array of polymers is formed based on a target polymer. The array includes systematically substituted versions of the target molecule. In another embodiment, rotated and systematically substituted cyclic polymers are formed on a substrate.
