Polymer-Supported Lewis Acids and Bases: Synthesis and Applications

摘要: Abstract In the past decade synthesis of novel stimuli-responsive materials has been driven by pursuit new applications and, more recently, sustainable and reusable systems. Of these materials, those which incorporate main group Lewis acids (LAs) bases (LBs) into their polymer backbones have shown extraordinary utility as a result synthetic diversity, enabling fine tuning reactivity ensuing properties tailored to desired application. Herein, recent progress made in macromolecular LAs LBs is being highlighted. Interactions between polymeric can be exploited build supramolecular networks based on both conventional frustrated pairs, while using either functionality individually enables preparation sensors for anions, cations, explosives biological molecules. The presence polymer-supported LAs/LBs organocatalysis extended controlling morphology, enabled improvements activity through compartmentalization coexistence classically incompatible functionalities. Finally, versatility this field demonstrated highlighting some advances CO2 chemisorption systems employing amine-based carbon capture reduction.
