Abstract:
1. A method for immobilizing an aryl-containing organic ligand, comprising: combining together the following in a single reaction medium: in the single reaction medium, (i) reacting the bonding functional group of the tethering agent with the aryl group or functionalized aryl group of the organic ligand and (ii) reacting the anchoring functional group of the tethering agent with an available functional group of the support material, so as to yield an aryl-containing organic ligand immobilized on the support material wherein the bonding functional group of the tethering agent is an alkyl halide or an acyl halide and the reaction of the bonding functional group is a Freidel-Crafts alkylation reaction or a Freidel-crafts acylation reaction.
