Merrifield Resin (merrifield + resin)
Selected AbstractsCu(II)-Azabis(oxazoline)-Complexes Immobilized on Superparamagnetic Magnetite@Silica-Nanoparticles: A Highly Selective and Recyclable Catalyst for the Kinetic Resolution of 1,2-DiolsADVANCED FUNCTIONAL MATERIALS, Issue 13 2009Alexander Schätz Abstract Two different types of azide functionalized magnetite@silica nanoparticles are synthesized, which are ideally suited as inexpensive supports for catalysts and reagents as demonstrated with the grafting of copper(II)-azabis(oxazoline) complexes via a copper(I) catalyzed azide/alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction. The potential of the immobilized complexes as catalysts is tested in the desymmetrization of racemic 1,2-diols through asymmetric benzoylation. Compared to azabis(oxazolines) "clicked" to common polymeric supports such as MeOPEG or Merrifield resin, Fe3O4@SiO2 proves to be superior with respect to activity and selectivity, as exemplified by employing the catalysts in up to five runs with consistent high activity and selectivity. Recycling of the catalysts is achieved quantitatively by magnetic decantation. [source] Highly Active and Recyclable Heterogeneous Iridium Pincer Catalysts for Transfer Dehydrogenation of AlkanesADVANCED SYNTHESIS & CATALYSIS (PREVIOUSLY: JOURNAL FUER PRAKTISCHE CHEMIE), Issue 1-2 2009Zheng Huang Abstract Pincer-ligated iridium complexes have proven to be highly effective catalysts for the dehydrogenation and transfer-dehydrogenation of alkanes. Immobilization onto a solid support offers significant potential advantages in the application of such catalysts particularly with respect to catalyst separation and recycling. We describe three approaches toward such immobilization: (i) covalent attachment to a Merrifield resin, (ii) covalent bonding to silica via a pendant alkoxysilane group, and (iii) adsorption on ,-alumina (,-Al2O3), through basic functional groups on the para- position of the pincer ligand. The simplest of these approaches, adsorption on ,-Al2O3, is also found to be the most effective, yielding catalysts that are robust, recyclable, and comparable to or even more active than the corresponding species in solution. Spectroscopic evidence (NMR, IR) and studies of catalytic activity support the hypothesis that binding occurs at the para- substituent and that this has only a relatively subtle and indirect influence on catalytic behavior. [source] Fast and Enantioselective Production of 1-Aryl-1-propanols through a Single Pass, Continuous Flow ProcessADVANCED SYNTHESIS & CATALYSIS (PREVIOUSLY: JOURNAL FUER PRAKTISCHE CHEMIE), Issue 6 2008Miquel Abstract A functional polymer 4, obtained by reaction of (R)-2-(1-piperazinyl)-1,1,2-triphenylethanol with a Merrifield resin, has been loaded in a packed bed reactor and used as catalyst for the continuous enantioselective production of 1-arylpropanols by ethylation of aromatic aldehydes. The high catalytic activity depicted by 4 allows the complete conversion of the substrates with the use of stoichiometric reagent ratios and unprecedently short residence times (down to 2.8,min). In practice, a single-pass operation can be used for all the studied aldehydes, and productions of up to 13.0 mol/g,h are recorded. The sequential operation of the flow system for the uninterrupted synthesis of a small library of enantiopure 1-arylpropanols is also reported. [source] Microwave-assisted TFA cleavage of peptides from Merrifield resinJOURNAL OF PEPTIDE SCIENCE, Issue 1 2010Alicja Kluczyk Abstract Microwave-assisted (MW) reactions are of special interest to the chemical community due to faster reaction times, cleaner reactions and higher product yields. The adaptation of MW to solid phase peptide synthesis resulted in spectacular syntheses of difficult peptides. In the case of Merrifield support, used frequently in synthesis of special peptides, the conditions used in product cleavage are not compatible with off-resin monitoring of the reaction progress. The application of MW irradiation in product removal from Merrifield resin using trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) was investigated using model tetrapeptides and the effects were compared with standard trifluoromethanesulphonic acid (TFMSA) cleavage using elemental analysis as well as chromatographic (HPLC) and spectroscopic (IR) methods. The deprotection of benzyloxycarbonyl and benzyl groups in synthetic bioactive peptides was analyzed using LC-MS and MS/MS experiments. In a 5 min microwave-assisted TFA reaction at low temperature, the majority of product is released from the resin, making the analytical scale MW-assisted procedure a method of choice in monitoring the reactions carried out on Merrifield resin due to the short reaction time and compatibility with HPLC and ESI-MS conditions.

[source] Poly(styrene- co -glycerol dimethacrylate): Synthesis, characterization, and application as a resin for gel-phase peptide synthesisJOURNAL OF POLYMER SCIENCE (IN TWO SECTIONS), Issue 19 2005Michael Roice Abstract An efficient cross-linked polymer support for solid-phase synthesis was prepared by introducing glycerol dimethacrylate cross-linker to polystyrene network using free radical aqueous suspension polymerization. The support was characterized by various spectroscopic methods. Morphological feature of the resin was analyzed by microscopy. The polymerization reaction was investigated with respect to the effect of amount of cross-linking agent, which in turn vary the swelling, loading, and the mechanical stability of the resin. The solvent uptake of the polymer was studied in relation to cross-linking and compared with Merrifield resin. The stability of the resin was tested in different synthetic conditions used for solid-phase peptide synthesis. Hydroxy group of the support was derivatized to chloro and then amino groups using different reagents and reaction conditions. Efficiency of the support was tested and compared with TentaGelÔ resin by following different steps involved in the synthesis of the 65,74 fragment of acyl carrier protein. The results showed that the poly(styrene- co -glycerol dimethacrylate) (GDMA-PS) is equally efficient as TentaGel resin in peptide synthesis. The purity of the peptides was analyzed by HPLC and identities were determined by mass spectroscopy and amino acid analysis. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

These ligands exhibit similar chemical behaviour to that of 1, but they have the additional possibility to be immobilised to a solid phase. Esterification of the hydroxymethyl linker of 3 yields 2,2-bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)-3-acetatopropionic acid (Hbdmpzap) (4). The molecular structures of 2, 3 and 4 all exhibit intramolecular hydrogen bridges. Introduction of a hydroxymethyl group to methyl bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)acetate (5) yields methyl2,2-bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)-3-hydroxypropionate(Mebdmpzhp) (6), which can be immobilised on Merrifield polymer to yield modified resin P - 6. To investigate the reactivity of these new ligands, manganese and rhenium complexes of 2, 3 and 4 have been studied. The molecular structures of the two manganese complexes [Mn(bdmpzpen)(CO)3] (7) and [Mn(bdmpzap)(CO)3] (8) have been confirmed by single-crystal X-ray structure determination. Saponification of polymer resin P - 6 and subsequent reaction with [ReBr(CO)5] yields rhenium tricarbonyl complexes anchored on Merrifield polymer (P -Re). Solid phase immobilisation of the [Mn(bdmpzpen)(CO)3] (7) and [Re(bdmpzpen)(CO)3] (9) complexes on 3-mercaptopropyl functionalised silica is initialised by AIBN. The tripodal coordination of manganese and rhenium in these functionalised Merrifield resins (P -Re) and silica (S -Mn, S -Re) is proven by a single A1 and two E signals in the IR spectra that are typical for unsymmetrical "piano stool" type carbonyl complexes.
