The present invention relates to a pipecolic linker and its use as a solid-phase linker in organic synthesis. Said pipecolic solid-phase linker may be used for coupling functional groups chosen between primary amines, secondary amines, aromatic amines, alcohols, phenols and thiols. In particular, said pipecolic solid-phase linker may be used for peptide or pseudopeptide synthesis, such as the reverse N to C peptide synthesis or the retro-inverso peptide synthesis, or for the synthesis of small organic molecules.
