Micellular catalysis has provided the ability to carry out several commonly used transformations used in the synthetic community to be carried out in water.

Surfactants for efficient reactions in water as a green chemistry alternative.

The Baeyer-Villiger oxidation is the oxidative cleavage of a carbon-carbon bond adjacent to a carbonyl, which converts the ketones to esters and the cyclic ketones to lactones.

Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  
  1. What can Product 698717, Polyoxyethanyl-α-tocopheryl sebacate, be used for?

    1 answer
    1. PTS is a non-ionic amphiphile that can be used to "solubilize" organic molecules in aqueous media. The PTS molecule forms micelles around the lipophilic compounds, allowing them to move into the aqueous phase for effective cross-coupling and metathesis reactions without the need of a co-solvent.
