Polystyrene-poly(ethylene glycol) resin-captured cross-linked palladium nanopaticles were prepared via a straightforward route, and their heterogeneous behavior was truly confirmed by various tests. They were applied to aqueous Suzuki cross-coupling reactions with various aryl bromides and recycled up to six times without loss of activity.
pH indicating resins were prepared by covalently attaching carboxylic acid derivatives of sulfthalein dyes, synthesized using a Suzuki cross-coupling, onto resin beads. The resin-bound indicators showed the expected colour changes according to pH and their behaviour was analysed using a micro UV/Vis spectrometer.
Self-indicating methylisocyanate resin, which functions as both a scavenger and an indicator for amines, was used for in-situ reaction monitoring and purification of a urea based library.
