Abstract

The phase-selective solubility properties of polymer supports that could be used in thermomorphic and latent biphasic systems useful in synthesis and catalysis were evaluated using polymers tagged with either visible dyes or fluorescent probes. Heptane/DMF, heptane/90% ethanol-water, heptane/ethyl acetate, heptane/ethanol, and heptane/tert-butyl alcohol solvent mixtures were all studied as examples of thermomorphic or latent biphasic ...
