[reaction: see text]. Microencapsulated VO(acac)2 [MC-VO(acac)2] has been prepared and screened with success as a catalyst for the epoxidation of allylic alcohols using tert-butyl hydroperoxide as oxidant. The reactions are run in hexane at room temperature. The MC-VO(acac)2 is reusable without significant loss of activity.

Polymer-supported catalysts and reagents have found many uses in synthetic organic chemistry. This review discusses the preparation of polymer-supported phosphine ligands and organometallic complexes formed using these and highlights their use in reactions that are of particular interest to medicinal chemists. The scope of the review is limited to phosphine ligands and their metal complexes attached to derivitised polystyrene supports.
