High-load, hybrid Si-ROMP reagents.

ABSTRACT: The combination of norbornenyl-tagged (Nb-tagged) silica particles and functionalized Nb-tagged monomers for the generation of hybrid Si-ROMP reagents and scavengers is reported. Specifically Si-ROMP-derived bis-acid chloride, dichlorotriazine, and triphenylphosphine scavenger/reagents have been grafted from the surface of silica particles utilizing surface-initiated, ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP). These hybrid polymeric materials combine the physical properties of current immobilized silica reagents and represent a key advancement in load by merging the inherent tunable properties of the ROMP-derived oligomers with silica supports for application in a parallel synthesis.
