SiliaBond - Functionalized Silica Gels

SiliaBond ® Functionalized Silica Gels SiliCycle is the leader in the development of functionalized silica gels, gathered under the name SiliaBond, for use in organic synthesis. The backbone of all SiliaBond products is SiliCycle SiliaFlash® F60 which provides superior performance for all types of applications due to the narrow particle size distribution and high purity. All the products in this section are made of standard flash silica gel, namely 40-63µm, 60Å. We are able to provide all functionalized products on any silica of this catalog (SiliaFlash, IMPAQ™, SiliaSphere™ & SiliaSphere™ PC) in any format (SiliaPrep™ SPE and SiliaSep™ Flash cartridges, etc.) on a custom basis. The use of solid supported reagents and scavengers is an excellent way to expedite organic synthesis by simplifying the purification process. Standard purification procedures including chromatography, liquid-liquid extraction, and crystallization can be time-consuming and difficult to scale up. In many cases, supported reagents have distinct advantages over their solution-phase counterparts, the biggest one being the ability to do multiple transformations in a single pot, the immobilization of toxic reagents, and increased selectivity. They are suitable for use in batch reactions and in flow through applications. Advantages of Functionalized Silica over Polymers Fast Kinetics: Since the silica is surface functionalized, the rate of reaction is not controlled by the diffusion in and
