Mesostructured silica-nanoparticle monolithic composites have been synthesized by dispersing prefabricated nanoparticles of gold or zeolite (silicalite) in ethanolic reaction mixtures containing SiCl4 and a Pluronic triblock copolymer template. Whereas silicalite nanoparticles were used directly, surface functionalization of the gold nanoparticles

Deprotection of the tert-butoxycarbonyl group during solid-phase synthesis of peptides can be conveniently and efficiently carried out using a neutral reagent, silicon tetrachloride/sodium iodide (iodotrichlorosilane). This simple and rapid method has been advantageously employed during the solid-phase synthesis of the
