The present invention provides an improved system for the rapid and non-destructive identification of chemical compounds attached to solid supports. In general, the invention provides an identification unit comprising a tag attached to the solid support and a binding partner that interacts specifically and detectably with the tag. In preferred embodiments, the identification unit incorporates the advantages of chemically robust tags and a decoding technique capable of amplification for easy detection and analysis. The present invention further provides a kit comprising a collection of tags capable of attachement to a support and binding partners capable of binding selectively and detectably to the tags, to generate an identification unit for the facile determination of the structure of a compound of interest by determining the reaction history and/or structural characteristics of the compounds that are encoded by the identification unit.
