A novel intramolecular macrocyclization reaction on a solid support using the Heckreaction has been achieved. For head to tail cyclization on a solid support, the linear precursor was anchored to a chlorotrityl chloride resin via an ester linkage using the β-carboxyl group of Asp. The Heck coupling of acrylic acid amide to 3-iodobenzylamine on the solid support proceeds smoothly to yield a cyclic
