Title: Solid phase catalysts and reagents. Final technical report, July 1, 1977-December 31, 1983

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5912009

Research supported under this grant for the period 1/1/80-12/31/83 has involved six major areas: (1) defining polymer structure-activity relationships in triphase catalytic systems, (2) developing polyether- and polyamide-based catalysts for practical organic synthesis, (3) establishing new synthetic entries into macrolides based on triphase and phase-transfer catalytic principles, (4) introducing new polymeric and monomeric mercury reagents for use in organic synthesis, (5) clarifying and quantifying kinetic isolation within cross-linked polystyrene, and (6) elucidating the kinetic and mechanistic features of the hydrolysis of organic halides in aqueous - liquid organic two phase systems. Detailed reports are presented for the six areas. For the period 7/1/77-12/31/79 brief summaries are presented for the following areas: (1) insolubilized hexamethylphosphoramide as a solid solvent; (2) triphase catalysis, consideration of catalyst and experimental conditions for simple nucleophilic displacement; (3) selectivity features of polystrene-based triphase catalysts; (4) evidence for an S/sub N//sup 1/ reaction occurring at a toluene-water interface; (5) solid phase cosolvents - triphase catalytic hydrolysis of 1-bromoadamantane; (6) consideration of the role of stirring and catalyst efficiency of polystyrene-based triphase catalysts. 24 references.
