The invention relates to the use of a onium salt functionalized by at least one organic function, as a soluble support, in the presence of at least one organic solvent, for organic synthesis of a molecule, in a homogenous phase, by at least one transformation of said organic function. The onium salt enables the synthesized molecule to be released. The onium salt is present in liquid or solid form at room temperature and corresponds to formula A

Sphingosine-1-phosphate (SIP) is an intracellular second messenger and an extracellular mediator through endothelial differentiation gene (EDG) receptors, which are a novel class of G-protein-coupled receptors. Although EDG has attracted much attention because of its various roles, no selective agonists or antagonists have yet been developed. This could account for the delay in clarifying the physiological roles of members of the EDG family. Because precise structural information on EDG receptors is not yet available, pharmacophore models were generated based on structural information for SIP using the rational drug design software Catalyst. Novel antagonists, 2-alkylthiazolidine-4-carboxylic acids, were retrieved from a three-dimensional database search using the pharmacophore models, and these showed activity for EDG3. On the basis of their nonphosphoric acid structure, more potent antagonists, 2-(m- or p-heptylphenyl)thiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid, were developed.

The presence of a self-replicator in a dynamic combinatorial library (DCL) offers function above and beyond libraries under thermodynamic control, moving towards out-of-equilibrium systems which mimic biological networks. In this work, we examine a previously reported DCL based on reversible imine formation to give amphiphilic structures. The amphiphilic imines were readily produced in organic solvents
