A novel resin-bound chlorostannane has been developed from Merrifield resin for use in solid-phase organic synthesis. This polymer was coupled with functionalized aryl-, heterocyclic-, benzyl- and styryl-zinc halides to afford resin-bound functionalized organostannanes with complete conversion as shown by gel-phase C-13 NMR analysis.
