  • Patent number: 8093435
    Abstract: A reagent for organic synthesis with which a chemical reaction can be conducted in a liquid phase and unnecessary compound(s) can be easily separated at low cost from the liquid phase after completion of the reaction. The reagent for organic synthesis reversibly changes from a liquid-phase state to a solid-phase state with changes in solution composition and/or solution temperature, and is for use in organic synthesis reactions. This reagent for organic syntheses facilitates process development. With the reagent, research on and development of, e.g., medicines through, e.g., compound library synthesis, etc. can be accelerated. It can hence contribute to technical innovations in the biochemical industry and chemical industry.

  • Publication number: 20100029904
    Abstract: A carrier for use for separation purpose and a method for separation of a compound enable a chemical reaction to be performed in a liquid phase, a compound of interest to be separated from the liquid phase after the completion of the reaction readily, the separated compound to be evaluated by structural analysis or the like while the compound is being bound to the carrier, and the compound to be separated from the carrier readily. A carrier for separation is also provided which has a reaction site capable of reacting with other compound(s) on a benzene ring, and a long-chain group having a specified carbon atom(s) at each of the ortho-position and the para-position of the reaction site through an oxygen atom.

  • Publication number: 20070066799
    Abstract: A solvent system which comprises two or more single organic solvents or two or more mixed organic solvents, characterized in that the state of the solvent system can be reversibly changed, with changing temperature conditions, from one state which is a homogeneously compatibilized mixed solvent system in which the two or more single or more mixed organic solvents constituting the solvent system have been homogeneously compatibilized and mixed to the other state which is a separated solvent system made up of two or more separated phases respectively consisting mainly of the two or more single or mixed organic solvents constituting solvent system, and that when the solvent system is the homogeneously mixed solvent system, a chemical component which is soluble in only one of the single or mixed organic solvents can be evenly dissolved in the system; and a process for producing a compound with the solvent system.
