Fluorous analogs of standard protecting groups represent a very effective fluorous tagging strategy. Following the definition of a good protecting group, the desired compound is tagged, and the tagging group can be added and removed easily under mild conditions.

J Am Chem Soc (2000) 122:9391-9395. This paper demonstrates an excellent use of fluorous tagging to purify combinatorial mixtures without the use of functional-group specific sequestrants or scavengers. Thus, it represents a completely orthogonal method of mixture purification.

This paper demonstrates the use of fluorous analogs of sequestration enabling reagents to facilitate automated synthesis of oligosaccharides. By capping unreacted substrates with fluorous groups, deletion impurities that would be difficult to separate by other means can be easily removed from the desired products using fluorous reverse-phase chromatography.

This study demonstrates a solid-phase linker that serves the dual purpose of anchoring the substrate to the solid phase and scavenging excess reagents in solution after the desired compound is released. This dual-use resin strategy is both novel and elegant.

This paper demonstrates the advantage of using the site isolation of the solid phase to affect otherwise difficult cyclization reactions. The cyclization precursors are effectively under infinite dilution conditions when anchored to a solid support.
