Summary on Grant Application Form |
|
Funtionalised imprinted polymer templates, based on polystyrene and polymethyl methacrylate polymers, will be designed and prepared, then used to define key rate-determining transition states so that electrophilic and radical-mediated cascade polyene cyclisations can be 'disciplined' to produce polycycle products, including steroids, in a predictable manner. The imprinted polymers will be funtionalised and modified to support Lewis and protic acids or organotin compounds. The research combines the areas of imprinted polymers, polymer supported reagents and template mediated synthesis and has considerable scope in contemporary organic synthesis.
