Utilising predominantly silica frameworks, families of novel materials containing different functional groups have been produced for a wide range of applications. Alumina frameworks are also available as required.
Heteroatom typically S or P can act as additional FG Immobilised Functional group(s) combinations can be varied & optimised

The range of products in this catalogue illustrate our expertise in the following areas Metal Scavenging and Recovery Heterogeneous Catalysis particularly suited to Green Chemistry Organic Fragment Removal and Product Purification Solid Phase Extraction (SPE) and Separation We also have a range of custom products and are constantly developing new materials for different applications and are happy to discuss these with interested parties. Enzyme immobilisation applications have recently been developed and successfully tested externally. Some examples of this functionality are illustrated on page 4. These give a flavour of the diversity of functionality, and available spacer linkages not offered by competitor products. PhosphonicS through its technology has opened up a new area of multi-functional materials not accessible by existing technology, which tends to offer mono-functional or simple materials. This capability allows complex, high activity materials to be designed specific to the target application. The advantages of being able to readily scale the production and deliver reproducible quality and performance make the materials highly commercially attractive. This combination of functional diversity and spacer variability enables PhosphonicS to offer a design service for the immobilisation of specific functional groups, biological entities and polymeric species.

Introduction
Metal Scavengers
Metal catalysts are extensively used to generate a wide range of products across a variety of industries. In the Pharmaceutical and Fine Chemical industries, metal catalysts play an important role in operations from early Discovery through Development to full Manufacture. Precious Metal catalysts in particular are used to promote many key transformations towards the synthesis of new Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs). In Medicinal Chemistry, palladium is perhaps the most-widely utilised Precious Metal, for reactions such as deprotections and hydrogenations, as well as carbon-carbon bond formations by Heck, Suzuki and Sonogashira couplings and carbonnitrogen bond formations by Buchwald-Hartwig aminations. The mild reaction conditions, high functional group tolerance and high yields offered by these now highly-advanced crosscoupling technologies also means that metal-catalysed reactions are now being used increasingly later on in complex pharmaceutical synthetic routes. Up until now the major drawback of metalcatalysed chemistry has been that toxic metal residues are invariably left bound to the desired reaction product, which will typically contain a number of functional groups, often in close proximity, and capable of strongly binding to Precious Metal catalyst residues. Traditional methods for the removal of metals from APIs include distillation, extraction, adsorption onto activated charcoals and crystallisation. However, these methods suffer from severe disadvantages including significant product loss; performance issues, primarily an inability to achieve the very low levels of residual metal content required by regulators; time and practicality issues. Indeed the leading references reported below describe the challenge of metal removal from APIs as requiring considerable development time, often for each individual product. PhosphonicS multi-functionalised silicas, designed containing ligands with an overall higher affinity for the metal compared to the pharmaceutical product, successfully overcome these metal removal issues and provide an attractive, reliable, practical and cost-effective first option for scavenging residual metals from all pharmaceutical products.

Dosage Calculator
Calculating how much PhosphonicS Scavenger to Use:
Initial screening During initial screening of a scavenger, the objective is to identify the best scavenger type(s) for the specific problem. Optimising the treat rate for the application is best run as a separate and subsequent step. For this reason, PhosphonicS normally recommends that initial scavenging experiments are run on small scale with 0.5-1 weight equivalents of the scavenger to the API or chemical intermediate /product. Example A 0.5 g sample of an API product is available in a reaction solvent after initial work-up. The Pd metal level in solution is expected to be in the range 100-1000 ppm. Add 0.25 g scavenger (0.5 weight equivalent) to each sample for the initial scavenging test. Measure metal levels in solution pre- and postscavenging to establish the best scavenger. Optimisation screening In the optimisation step, it is normal to start at the initial screening treat rate, and then repeat screening with reduced levels of scavenger. It is often possible to reduce the scavenger treat rate down towards a range of 2-4 molar equivalents of scavenger to metal. This does depend on the specific problem and conditions that are used. Note, the calculation of the molar equivalents of scavenger being used requires a knowledge of the metal level in the solution to be scavenged or in the product that is to be treated to remove the metal. Note: PhosphonicS scavengers are rated on their metal removal capacity denoted in mmol/g. The molar equivalents of scavenger are calculated as follows: Example A Assume the scavenger of choice has a rating of 1.0 mmol/g The Palladium (Pd) metal level in an 2000 mL (2 L) API solution has been measured as 200 ppm in solution (mg/L). Pd atomic weight = 106.42 This equates to a Pd content = 200 x 2 = 400 mg Pd = 0.4 g Pd = 3.759 mmoles The amount of scavenger required for a treat rate = 1 molar equivalent = 3.759/1.0 = 3.759 g The amount of scavenger required for a treat rate = 4 molar equivalents = 4 x 3.759 = 15.035 g Example B Assume the scavenger of choice has a rating of 1.0 mmol/g The Palladium (Pd) metal level in a 1000 g (1 kg) sample of API has been measured as 4000 mg/kg. The product is to be scavenged after dissolution in 20 L of solvent. Pd atomic weight = 106.42 This equates to a Pd content after dissolution= 4000 x 1 = 4000 mg Pd = 4 g Pd = 37.59 mmoles The amount of scavenger required for a treat rate = 1 molar equivalent = 37.59/1.0 = 37.59 g The amount of scavenger required for a treat rate = 4 molar equivalent = 4 x 37.59 = 150.35 g

Metal Scavengers

Usage
Metal Scavengers Using PhosphonicS Metal Scavengers
Step 1 Choose Functionalised Materials for Metal Scavenging The Metal Scavenger selection table provides information on scavenger affinity for each metal. It is recommended that a number of materials or an established metal kit are screened against a particular metal removal problem. The removal kit selected will contain a number of functionalised materials which have demonstrated high affinity for the metal to be removed. Within each Precious Metal kit, four materials have been highlighted as top screening candidates, to allow screening of the kit in two stages if required. Step 2 Select Experimental Design Factors Equivalents of scavenger to use In initial experiments we suggest using 0.5 1 weight equivalents of scavenger to the API or synthetic intermediate. Once the preferred scavenger is identified, the process can be quickly optimised and the number of equivalents of scavenger reduced down to typically 2-4 molar equivalents of scavenger : metal residue in the API - subject to each particular problem. See page 12 - Dosage Calculator to help calculate how much PhosphonicS Scavenger to use and for further guidance on initial screening and optimisation. Any potential interaction between the functional groups on the scavenger and any other reactive reagents or by-products present should also be considered at this stage. Temperature In initial experiments we suggest using a starting temperature of 50 C for scavenging investigations. Whilst many scavenging processes can be operated successfully at room temperature within reasonable timescales, higher scavenging rates can often be achieved by warming the solution. PhosphonicS materials can be added directly to warm reaction mixtures and heated to elevated temperatures without degradation. pH of Aqueous Reaction Mixtures For best results, PhosphonicS materials should be used in the pH range 2 to 10. Outside of this pH range, care should be exercised. Agitation rate Higher agitation rates can enhance scavenging performance although typically gentle to moderate agitation rates will suffice. Use of orbital shaking or gentle stirrer bar stirring is recommended on small screening scales, proceeding to overhead stirring upon scale-up. Solvent PhosphonicS materials can be used in a wide range of aqueous and organic solvents, including typical solvents such as THF, DMF, ethyl acetate, methanol, toluene, ethers and chlorinated solvents. Changing solvent can be considered if scavenging is slow. Step 3 Typical Experimental Procedure The solid scavenger can be added directly to the solution of API or synthetic intermediate. No prewetting of the scavenger is required. The mixture should be agitated for at least one hour for initial investigations. Scavenging progress can be followed by normal analytical techniques such as ICP A strong indication of the progress of metal . removal can sometimes be gained by the loss of colour from the solution or by colouration of the normally white scavenger. If metal removal is not complete then the process can be continued or parameters such as temperature adjusted, with residual metal content measured at additional suitable periods. Step 4 Optimisation In exceptional cases the scavenging process may need to be extended to several hours or overnight with the use of additional scavenger and/or an increase in temperature. Mixtures of scavengers might also be employed. At the end of this period the scavenger is removed by filtration, the scavenger washed with additional solvent and the combined solutions concentrated. After selection of the best scavenger(s), optimisation of the scavenger quantity (typically down to between 2-4 molar equivalents of scavenger to metal residue in the API can be achieved), temperature, scavenging time and solvent type can be undertaken if required. Cartridge formats and pre-weighed centrifuge tubes are available as alternatives to loose sample to facilitate throughput during early screenings stage see pages 6 and 28.

Introduction to Kits
To support Research and Development programs a set of product kits has been created. These allow the trial of different PhosphonicS products, providing the assessment of different scavenging mechanisms, and the identification and selection of the optimum product for a specific application. Kits are designed for the removal of particular metals and contain materials that can be used under both acidic and basic conditions. Additional custom kits to address the removal of particular metals are available on request; please contact PhosphonicS to discuss your particular requirements. Typically 10 g of each scavenger is included in the kit. Alternatively we can offer 25 g or 100 g formats. Materials within kits can be ordered individually on larger scale by reference to their product code. For kit pricing please contact PhosphonicS Kits Available Kit A: General Metal Removal Kit (a range of base, heavy & Precious Metal removal agents) 10 g format (SP-05-KIT A4 10) (9 x 10 g samples); 25 g format (SP-05-KIT A4 25) (9 x 25 g samples) Kit B: Palladium Removal Kit (a range of scavenging agents for palladium and other Precious Metals) 10 g format (SP-05-KIT B7 10) (9 x 10 g samples); 25 g format (SP-05-KIT B7 25) (9 x 25 g samples); 100 g format (SP-05-KIT B7 100) (9 x 100 g samples) Kit C: Copper Removal Kit (a full range of scavenging agents for copper removal) 10 g format (SP-05-KIT C6 10) (9 x 10 g samples) Kit D: Chromium Removal Kit (a wide range of scavenging agents for chromium removal) 10 g format (SP-05-KIT D4 10) (6 x 10 g samples) Kit E: Ruthenium Removal Kit (a wide range of scavenging agents for ruthenium removal) 10 g format (SP-05-KIT E4 10) (8 x 10 g samples) Kit F: Platinum Removal Kit (a full range of scavenging agents for platinum removal) 10 g format (SP-05-KIT F2 10) (9 x 10 g samples) Kit G: Tin Removal Kit (a full range of scavenging agents for tin removal) 10 g format (SP-05-KIT G3 10) (9 x 10 g samples) Kit H: Osmium Removal Kit (a full range of scavenging agents for osmium removal) 10 g format (SP-05-KIT H2 10) (7 x 10 g samples) Kit I: Rhodium Removal Kit (a variety of scavenging agents for rhodium removal) 10 g format (SP-05-KIT I4 10) (8 x 10 g samples) In some cases, customers may however prefer to screen less materials initially. To aid selection for this advanced screening, within kits B-I, four materials have been highlighted as top screening candidates. When adopting this approach, the remaining materials should be used to provide a second tranche of scavengers as required based on the first round screening results, to probe different scavenging mechanisms and spatial arrangements of functional groups. Within kits, scavengers are not listed in any order of preference and it is recommended to trial initially at least all four top materials against a particular Precious Metal scavenging problem.

Scavenging of Palladium from APIs


Metal Scavengers
PhosphonicS materials show a high affinity for metal scavenging, which it has been demonstrated in many cases is sufficient to overcome the strong affinity of polar functional groups within APIs for metal ions. Metal removal from APIs containing hydroxyl groups, amines, amides, carboxylic acids and esters, ethers, nitriles and amino acids have all been successful and we have reported the scavenging of palladium residues from a range of highly functionalised synthetic intermediates and APIs, generated from palladium-catalysed deprotection reactions and cross-coupling reactions.

Metal Scavengers

Options on Process Scale


Metal Scavengers
Process Development scale cartridges prepacked with PhosphonicS established metal scavenger range1 are now readily available. This versatile cartridge format offers significant project time-savings to the Process chemist, reducing both scavenging times and unit operations, including vessel cleaning and removing manual handling of the scavenger. The single PhosphonicS cartridge format was successfully tested in AstraZenecas large scale labs, progressing to the Pilot plant where a flexible, scale-out approach has allowed multiple cartridges to be used at different scales as required for a variety of metal removal API projects,2 recently being applied at commercial product scale.

Options on Process Scale


Using PhosphonicS Process Development Cartridges Pd Removal from a Cross-coupling Reaction on Large Scale (7.6 kg) A crude reaction product was generated via a Pd-mediated cross-coupling reaction in toluene. After work-up the solution was found to contain 600 ppm of palladium. Metal Scavenging : A prior screening2 exercise incorporating a range of polymer and silicabased adsorbents and extractants identified the most suitable palladium scavenger as SPM32. Small scale cartridge testing had implied the use of up to 4 cartridges may be required for effective Pd removal down to the target level of 50 ppm (92% Pd removal). The process solution was processed in two 63 L batches, each containing 3.8 kg of intermediate, and was pumped at room temperature at a flow rate of ~40 L/hr consecutively through four 20 PhosphonicS scavenger cartridges, each containing ~0.5 kg of PhosphonicS mercaptosulfide scavenger SPM32. Analysis showed the Pd content to be 217 ppm after cartridge 1: (64% Pd removal) down to 11 ppm after cartridge 4 (>98% Pd removal in total). After use of a fifth cartridge the final product was found to contain just 5 ppm Pd. This result was comparable with a control batch slurry scavenging experiment stirred at room temperature overnight. Process Result : Multi-kg quantities of the reaction stream were efficiently processed through the PhosphonicS scavenger cartridge in times which make cartridge processing a viable alternative to batch processing for large scale laboratory work targeting initial kg quantities of an API or an earlier intermediate. The intermediate was advanced to the next stage of the synthesis within the allowed production timeframe and well within specification in terms of metal content. Housings to hold large multiples of PhosphonicS pre-packed cartridges for further Process scale-up using a scale-out approach are readily available and results from use of this multiple cartridge approach in conjunction with AstraZeneca will be reported fully in the near future.2 An earlier, alternative option to scale-up processes is: Using Plant Filter Housings packed with PhosphonicS Metal Scavengers On pilot plant scale efficient metal removal from process streams can also be achieved by packing PhosphonicS metal scavengers into existing larger filter housings. As required, recirculation of the solution can be performed until the desired target metal level is achieved for that particular synthetic step. AstraZeneca have employed this process for metal removals from several API intermediates including:

A crude heterocyclic highly-functionalised reaction product was generated using Pd2dba3/XPhos in a mixed organic solution and after work-up of this step the solution was found to contain 720 ppm of palladium. The intermediate was generated on 44 kg scale and ~50% by weight of PhosphonicS SPM36f was packed into the filter housing. Recirculation of the solution of the API intermediate at 80 C resulted in a reduction in Pd content over 36 hours to just 75 ppm in solution/40 ppm in the intermediate (equating to 90% Pd removal), meeting the specification required for this stage of the process within the allowed production timeframe. After further synthetic steps this allowed the API batch to be delivered on time and within regulatory guidelines for metal content.

Centrifuge Screening Tubes


Metal Scavengers
Centrifuge Screening Tubes To facilitate the screening of our metal scavengers, the scavenger kits outlined on pages 15-24 are available in capped polypropylene centrifuge tubes. Each tube contains 50 mg of scavenger and the tube volume is 2 mL. This approach to adsorbent screening has been adopted by a number of pharmaceutical companies and was recently described in detail by Merck for the removal of both metals1 and coloured impurities2 from APIs. In this format, the functionalised silica scavengers typically have a particle size range of 60 - 200 m and a pore diameter of 60 , though this varies according to the particular metal of interest (see pages 15-24 for complete details on each of the scavengers contained within screening kits) and typically functional group loadings are 0.8 mmol/g.

PhosphonicS materials are being used by pharmaceutical companies in the manufacture of APIs and API intermediates at full process scale. Details of these processes are generally confidential, but we are able to summarise the experience of some of our customers:

Client : Exelixis
Pd Removal : Delivering 16 kgs of an API within Regulatory Levels (<5 ppm) Synopsis : Crude API sample containing >100 ppm of palladium, introduced by a Pd(0)-catalysed coupling reaction performed at the final stage of the synthetic process. Conventional metal scavenging protocols were not readily adaptable to this compound due to its very poor solubility. Key Issue : Speed to initial 100 g quantities of API and then kg quantities for testing. Process Target : Isolation of the API without any significant loss and with Pd content reduced to within regulatory guidelines (<5 ppm). Process Step : Treatment of the existing process stream, consisting of a solution of the crude API sample in an organic-aqueous solvent mixture at >80 C for 1 hour in slurry mode with PhosphonicS multi-functionalised silica-based thiol scavenger SPM32 (unoptimised, 0.1 weight equivalents compared to the API used). Process Result : API isolated with minimal loss of material, without the introduction of any further impurities (as determined by full gradient HPLC) and with regulatoryacceptable Pd content of <5 ppm. Process Scale-up : API produced on 16 kg scale using this process step.

Project Goal: to deliver 2 kg of API with Palladium content within regulatory levels (<10ppm) Synopsis : Crude heterocyclic API prepared from Suzuki coupling with Pd(dppf) in DMF containing up to 1000 ppm residual Palladium. Unsuccessful Metal Removal Attempts : Due to the extremely poor solubility of the API conventional metal removal protocols such as treatment with activated charcoal, treatment with silica gel or extraction with various aqueous solutions proved unsuccessful. Key Issue : Reduction of Palladium content to within specification (<10 ppm) without loss of heterocyclic API product. Scavenger Screening : Initially Palladium removal with a number of different PhosphonicS scavengers was evaluated in various solvents and at different temperatures. From the results achieved and in collaboration with PhosphonicS a combination of two different scavengers were recommended and successfully afforded API containing the desired level of <10 ppm Palladium. Process Step : Treatment of 2.4 kg crude API in Me-THF and DMF at 60 C for 12 hours with a 1:1 combination of PhosphonicS scavengers SPM32 and SEM26 in slurry mode (1 weight equivalent in total compared to the API). The process was continuously monitored by Pd analysis. Process Result : After removal of PhosphonicS scavengers by filtration and crystallization of the API from solution, 2 kg of heterocyclic API was delivered in >99% purity containing just 4 ppm Palladium.

Rh Removal from Addition Reaction on Large Scale (120 kg in total) Synopsis : Crude heterocyclic addition reaction product containing multiple functional groups. Initial metal content : up to 686 ppm of rhodium in organic solution. Key Issue : Reduction of metal content to set specification within timescale (24 hours) allowed for this process step. Process Target : Within the 24-hour timescale allowed for this process step, Rh content of the solution was required to be <100 ppm (<75 ppm in the intermediate), allowing further reduction to within ICH guidelines upon subsequent synthetic steps. Scavenger Screening : PhosphonicS multi-functionalised silica-based thiol scavenger SPM32f was identified as the optimum scavenger for this process stream following a metal adsorbent screening campaign including activated carbons /charcoals, polymer-based adsorbents and competitor silica scavengers. Process Step : PhosphonicS SPM32f metal scavenger (30 wt% to starting material) was packed into a standard filter housing and the process stream at 60 C was circulated through the filter bed, with periodic monitoring of the Rh content. Rapid and effective Rh removal was achieved quickly and the process was allowed to continue for between 20 and 24 hours per batch to maximise metal removal. Process Result : Metal content of the isolated API-intermediate was found to be reduced down to <50 ppm in solution (72 ppm in the intermediate) within the 24-hour process step timescale, with no loss of intermediate indicated by appropriate analytical assays. Metal removal was consistent for each of the four 30 kg batches run. The API-intermediate was advanced to the next process step, without any delays, allowing the API batch to be delivered on time and within regulatory guidelines for metal content.

Introduction
The benefits of using excess reagents for organic synthesis in order to drive reactions to completion and maximise product yield can often be outweighed by the requirement to effectively remove the excess, often highly reactive, reagent in order to ensure subsequent screening results and product testing are not compromised. These reactive reagents, some with potential toxic and genotoxic activities, include electrophiles and nucleophiles, acids and bases, anions and cations. Even when used in substoichiometric amounts and thereby largely consumed in the desired reaction, such highly reactive reagents still need to be safely removed from products, often down to low ppm or even ppb levels. The use of functionalised materials as scavengers of organic molecules has been widely embraced by High-Throughput Chemistry groups in order to simplify solution-phase reaction work-ups and allow arrays of compounds to be generated quickly and in high purity, replacing more traditional and timeconsuming methods for the removal of excess reagents including aqueous work-ups and chromatography. There is still a need for effective organic scavengers, particularly those available on scales to fulfil scavenging operations for a particular drug candidate/API right the way from early Discovery through Development to full Manufacture.
Scavenger Impurities Substrate Impurities

PhosphonicS has designed a portfolio of multifunctionalised silicas which possess optimum ligands and functionalities for the removal of a broad range of reactive organic impurities and reagents from pharmaceutical products, and provide an attractive, reliable, practical and costeffective first option for scavenging organics from all pharmaceutical products.

Organic Scavengers

Properties & Benefits


Organic Scavengers Properties of PhosphonicS Portfolio of Organic Scavengers
High affinity for a wide range of organic impurities. Fast kinetics - highly active even at ambient temperatures. High selectivity for reactive organic impurities, meaning minimal loss of the API/compound. Broad solvent and pH compatibility with both organic and aqueous formulations. No swelling of the materials is required. Excellent stability - thermal, physical, chemical and mechanical. Very high purity = negligible extractable impurities. Enhanced performance, due to multiple functional groups and higher effective loadings. Availability from Discovery to Process Scale, in loose & cartridge formats. Complete compatibility with other PhosphonicS scavengers as scavenging functionalities are completely immobilised, functionalities which would be incompatible as solution phase reagents can be mixed in onepot for scavenging; e.g. PhosphonicS immobilised acids and amine scavengers can be used together to purify amide formation reactions in which both acidic and basic reagents remain.

Performance Benefits of PhosphonicS Organic Scavengers


Faster : purification, batch processing, problem-solving, market introduction. Reduced : Discovery/Development time, valuable material losses, manufacturing costs. Enhanced : process, productivity, compliance.

Usage
Selecting & Using PhosphonicS Organic Scavengers
Step 1 - Choose Functionalised Materials for Organic Scavenging The Organic Scavenger kit lists provide information on scavenger affinity for particular impurities. It is recommended that a number of materials or an established Organic Scavenger kit are screened against a particular impurity. Step 2 - Select Scavenging Format Slurry Batch or Cartridge Loose scavengers for slurry batch processing are available at all scales. Easy-to-use cartridge formats are also available to enhance throughput and processing time. Step 3 - Select Experimental Design Factors and Run Scavenging Process Equivalents of scavenger to use - In initial slurry scavenging experiments we suggest using up to 6 molar equivalents of scavenger to the reagent or reactive impurity to be removed. This may be increased for cartridge applications. - Once the preferred scavenger is identified, the process and the number of equivalents of scavenger can often be quickly optimised to 2 molar equivalents or less. - Any potential interactions between the functional groups on the scavenger and any other reactive reagents or by-products present should also be considered at this stage. Temperature - We suggest using a starting temperature of up to 50 C for initial scavenging investigations. In cartridge formats, the solution may need to be recycled. - Many scavenging processes can be operated successfully at room temperature within reasonable timescales, but higher scavenging rates can often be achieved by warming the solution. - PhosphonicS materials can be added directly to warm reaction mixtures and heated to elevated temperatures without degradation. As an alternative, warm solutions may be added directly to PhosphonicS cartridges. Agitation Rate/Cartridge Flow Rate - Higher agitation rates can enhance scavenging performance although typically gentle to moderate agitation rates will suffice. Use of orbital shaking or gentle stirrer bar stirring is recommended on small screening scales, proceeding to overhead stirring upon scale-up. - For cartridge operations, we recommend initially performing scavenger operations under gravity. Subsequently, positive pressure or vacuum might be applied to optimise flow rate, whilst maintaining full scavenging efficiency. Solvent PhosphonicS materials can be used in a wide range of aqueous and organic solvents, including typical solvents such as THF, DMF, ethyl acetate, methanol, toluene, ethers and chlorinated solvents. Changing solvent can be considered if scavenging is slow. pH of Aqueous Reaction Mixtures For best results, PhosphonicS materials should be used in the pH range 2 to 10. Outside of this pH range, care should be exercised. Time In slurry format, solutions should be agitated for at least one hour for initial investigations. Scavenging progress can be followed by normal analytical techniques such as HPLC. If removal is not complete the process can be continued or parameters adjusted, such as increasing the temperature or adding further scavenger. In cartridge formats, flow rates and solution recycling should be considered to optimise scavenging performance. Step 4 Work-up and Product Isolation From slurry operations the scavenger is removed by simple filtration. In both slurry and cartridge format, the scavenger should be washed with additional solvent and the combined solution concentrated in vacuo to provide the purified product.

Amine Scavenging Preparation of Medicinal Chemistry Intermediate 3-(2-Bromophenyl)propanoyl chloride (2.28 g, 9.23 mmol), was dissolved in dichloromethane (20 mL), cooled to 0 C and phenethylamine (excess, 5.8 mL, 30 mmol) was added dropwise over 15 minutes. The reaction mixture was warmed to r.t. and stirred for an additional 4 hours. The solution was passed through a plug of heterogeneous phosphonic acid POH1 (1.5 g), which effectively removed the excess amine. The resultant solution was evaporated under reduced pressure to give the desired amide product (2.8 g, 94 % yield, >95% purity).

Scavenger Screening for Removal of Commonly Problematic Electrophiles Three PhosphonicS scavengers were screened against example substrates from classes of problematic electrophiles: alkyl halides, -haloacyl derivatives and sulfonic acids. Scavenging was generally effective using just 2 equivalents of scavenger at 50 C in THF. PhosphonicS scavengers allowed rapid optimisation of the impurity removal, often resulting in >98% scavenging of the electrophile, and eliminated the need to use problematic additives such as tertiary amines often employed with other scavengers.

Introduction
Solid Phase Extraction (SPE) is now well established as an essential tool in Discovery Medicinal Chemistry, offering considerable operational benefits and time savings over traditional extractive work-up and chromatographic methods. This simple technique is ideally suited to purifying milligrams through to multiple grams of product, and has found application at the various project stages of Lead Discovery (larger compound arrays/libraries) to Hit-to-Lead and Lead Optimisation (small focused compound arrays and high value single compounds).
Direct Filtration
Reaction mixture Wash solvent (MeOH)

Catch and Release


Reaction mixture Wash solvent (MeOH) Eluting solvent (eg NH3 in MeOH)

Whilst often highly effective, SPE materials based on such strong sulfonic acid functionality can present problems for instance when acidsensitive moieties are present - sulfonic acid sorbents have been used for the removal of common protecting groups such as Boc and TBDMS - or by catalysing side reactions of the basic compounds to be purified, resulting in either product loss or a reduction in purity. Sulfonic acid SCX materials also generally fail to differentiate between the different basicities of reaction components such as 2 and 3 amines, mixtures which are frequently generated by common reactions such as reductive aminations or deprotection steps. PhosphonicS offers a number of silicaimmobilised acids with reduced acidities, covering a pKa range from 1 to 6 and featuring phosphonic acid and carboxylic acid functionalities. These materials allow the clean purification of basic compounds containing acidsensitive groups such as Boc, OtBu and TBDMS, and can also be used for selective separations of basic reaction components including 2 and 3 amines, and saturated and unsaturated nitrogen heterocycles. PhosphonicS immobilised amines act as weak anion exchangers, circumventing the problems of irreversible retention and product loss often associated with stronger anion exchangers. The inherent high stability, selectivity and excellent solvent compatibility of PhosphonicS functionalised silicas make the materials ideally suited to SPE purifications in Medicinal Chemistry.

Strong cation exchange (SCX) is the most widely used method of SPE purification. Basic reaction products are typically retained by the SCX material, allowing non-basic impurities to be washed away, before the desired basic product is eluted. This purification protocol is termed catch and release and has traditionally been performed using cation exchange materials featuring strongly acidic sulfonic acid functionalities of pKa <1. Product purification can also be performed by the retention of basic impurities by the SCX material, with the non-retained, non-basic reaction product washed off and collected. This can be considered a non-retained method of purification or direct filtration of impurities from the product.

Typical Purification Procedure


Using PhosphonicS Cation Exchange Materials 1. Choose the appropriate PhosphonicS SPE cation exchange material POH1d or STMAd. 2. Select the appropriate size cartridge loading onto the cartridge should typically start at 5% by weight (reaction mixture : functionalised silica), though much higher loadings are often possible. 3. Condition the cartridge by passing MeOH followed by the loading solvent of choice through it. 4. Load the reaction mixture onto the top of the cartridge in the solvent of choice (~1 mL solvent/50 mg product). 5. Allow the reaction mixture layer to elute through. Pass further MeOH through the cartridge. This load fraction will contain unretained reaction components. 6. Wash the cartridge with further MeOH. These wash fractions will contain any further traces of unretained reaction components. 7. Basic product elution is dependent on the modified cation exchange material used. Elute the product with triethylamine in MeOH solution (5% v/v) and collect the fraction. If necessary, elute the cartridge further with ammonia in MeOH solution (~1.2% v/v; ~0.7 M) and collect the fraction. Fractions from these two elution steps will contain any retained or caught reaction components. 8. Rinse the cartridge finally using MeOH. 9. Analyse fractions to confirm that the desired separation has been achieved. 10. Concentrate appropriate fractions in vacuo to afford the purified product(s).

Introduction
Catalysts
The use of heterogeneous catalysts for chemical production is growing in importance as chemical industries seek to demonstrate improved sustainability and reduced environmental impact. This drive towards the use of heterogeneous catalysts is based on the inherent process benefits offered. These include easier product isolation and purification, no undesired catalystderived contamination of the product, cost benefits from catalyst recycling and often improved activity and reaction selectivity over homogeneous catalysts, or even stoichiometric homogeneous reagents. Heterogeneous catalysts, which are highly suitable for either batch or continuous flow applications, can also be used as convenient tools for high-throughput Discovery Chemistry, reducing and often removing the need for laborious product purifications. PhosphonicS has developed a range of novel heterogeneous catalysts for a wide range of applications including metal-mediated crosscouplings, oxidations and acid-promoted reactions in the pharmaceutical, fine chemical and petrochemical industries.

Heterogeneous Palladium Catalysts


Catalysts
Compared to traditional synthetic methods, palladium-catalysed cross-coupling reactions offer increased synthetic convergence and shorter routes into products. As these methods allow highly functionalised molecules to be coupled together under relatively mild conditions, metal-catalysed reactions are extremely widely used for Discovery Medicinal Chemistry efforts and are becoming increasingly used by Process Chemistry groups, even at later stages of candidate synthesis. In spite of the excellent performance of metal scavengers such as functionalised silicas, the potential for metal contamination of final products by homogeneous catalysts, alongside some of the other benefits outlined previously, has led to much synthetic attention being devoted to the search for efficient heterogeneous palladium catalysts. PhosphonicS immobilised heterogeneous palladium catalysts have been successfully utilised in cross-coupling reactions including Suzuki and Heck reactions and are highly effective for a wide range of different substrates giving the coupled products in very high yields.

General Suzuki Reaction Conditions


For each substrate efficient reaction conditions have invariably to be determined and variations in the choice of catalyst, catalyst and reagent concentrations, solvents and temperature may have to be investigated. Catalyst variations such as particle size, surface area and pore diameters can subsequently be explored to optimise a particular reaction. These general reaction conditions can vary slightly depending on the catalyst used. For catalysts PAPd1r and PAPd2r, 0.1 mol% of catalyst is typically used and for SCRPd, SEM2Pd and SPM3Pd catalysts a typical amount of 1-5 mol% is employed. General Procedure 1 : An aryl halide (1 mmol), a boronic acid (1.5 mmol), K2CO3 (2 mmol) and the appropriate catalyst were refluxed in xylene (4 mL) for 2 hours. General Procedure 2 : An aryl halide (1 mmol), a boronic acid (1.1 mmol), NatOBu (1.2 mmol) and catalyst were stirred in ipropanol (4 mL) at r.t. for 6 hours. Microwave Procedure : An aryl halide (1 mmol), a boronic acid (1.5 mmol), K2CO3 (2 mmol) and the appropriate catalyst were stirred in a mixture of EtOH:H2O:DME (1:2:4) (2.5 mL) at 130 C for up to 30 minutes in a microwave reactor. Product Isolation and Catalyst Recycling : The crude reaction product was isolated by filtration of the catalyst followed by drying in vacuo. The catalyst was washed with water and methanol and dried in vacuo and can then be re-used. Flow Chemistry PhosphonicS heterogeneous palladium catalysts can be packed into glass reactor columns and applied to Suzuki reactions such as that shown below under continuous flow conditions. Flow process benefits such as the ability to use high substrate concentrations, high substrate conversions, good catalyst capacity and short residence times were all observed.

Heterogeneous Metal Oxidation Catalysts


Allylic and benzylic oxidations, alcohol oxidations, sulfoxidations and epoxidations are key chemical transformations. However these reactions, generally conducted by the use of stoichiometric concentrations of inorganic oxidants, suffer from significant environmental and safety drawbacks which have restricted their use on process and manufacturing scale. Widely-used oxidising reagents include potassium permanganate, manganese dioxide, chromium trioxide, potassium chromate, potassium dichromate and peracids. These hazardous reagents produce large volumes of toxic waste that is becoming increasingly costly to treat and dispose of in an environmentallyfriendly manner. Difficulties in the work-up of these oxidation reactions as well as in the purification of the products, particularly from metal residues, are also typically encountered. Whilst highly efficient metal scavenging technologies such as functionalised silicas are now available, the removal of metal species from APIs can often be a complex problem, with increasingly strict regulatory metal content targets to be addressed. In addition to generating large quantities of hazardous and toxic waste, this means that reaction products whose synthesis involves a traditional homogenous metal-promoted oxidation are often taken forward into initial screens or further synthetic steps with large metal contamination, thereby severely affecting result reliability. There is clearly an increasing need for new heterogeneous oxidation catalysts that are not only effective and available across a range of scales but also possess advantages such as ease of use, facile product isolation, produce reduced hazardous waste and allow catalyst recovery and recycling. Under mild conditions in the presence of a re-oxidant, PhosphonicS heterogeneous oxidation catalysts cleanly, efficiently and selectively perform key oxidative transformations, including alcohol oxidations, benzylic and allylic oxidations, epoxidations and sulfoxidations. The catalysts can be simply and effectively recycled.

For each substrate reaction conditions have to be initially validated and variations in catalyst and reagent concentrations, solvents and temperature have to be investigated to fine-tune the reaction outcome. PhosphonicS publications provide useful guidance for most oxidation substrates. Variations in particle size, surface area and pore diameters are factors which can subsequently be explored to further optimise a particular process. Allylic Oxidation: A mixture containing the substrate (1 mmol) dissolved in acetonitrile (6 mL), catalyst POCo (60 mg) and tert-butyl hydroperoxide (6 mmol in decane) was heated and stirred under an atmosphere of nitrogen. Alcohol Oxidation: The alcohol (1 mmol) dissolved in acetonitrile (4 mL) was added to catalyst POCe (40 mg). The mixture was stirred and sodium bromate (2 mmol) and water (0.5 mL) were added. The resultant mixture was refluxed under an atmosphere of nitrogen. Sulfoxidation: The POCe catalyst (30 mg) and

sulfide (1 mmol) were added to acetonitrile (3 mL). Sodium bromate (1.5 mmol) and water (0.5 mL) were added. This mixture was stirred with heating. As an alternative POVO catalyst can be used with 30% aqueous hydrogen peroxide employed as the re-oxidant. Epoxidation: A mixture containing the substrate (1 mmol) dissolved in acetonitrile (6 mL), POVO (60 mg) and tert-butyl hydroperoxide (6 mmol in decane) was heated and stirred under an atmosphere of nitrogen. Reaction Work-up and Product Isolation: On completion of the reaction, the catalyst was filtered off and washed with a suitable solvent. The catalyst can be dried in vacuo and re-used if appropriate. The combined filtrate was washed if appropriate (e.g. with 10% aqueous sodium sulfite solution followed by water for POCo allylic oxidations), dried over MgSO4 and concentrated under reduced pressure. Purification where necessary, to remove traces of starting material, was by recrystallisation or column chromatography.

Heterogeneous Acid Catalysts


Catalysts
A large number of chemical processes are acidcatalysed and typically these have been performed with quantities of mineral acids, which can be hazardous to use, corrosive, and necessitate reaction work-ups generating inorganic waste requiring appropriate, environmentally-friendly disposal. Side-products are also common and often require removal. On Process Scale the costs for these tasks can be high and have a significant impact on overall Structure Name process costs. On Discovery Scale the aqueous work-up is time-consuming and inconvenient. Heterogeneous acid catalysts remove these issues, can be easily removed by simple filtration and are now being used increasingly for chemical reactions. PhosphonicS offer a number of immobilised acid catalysts, available from R&D quantities up to full Process Scale. Loading Particle Size Pore Diameter

Acid-Catalysed Reactions & Case Studies


The choice of catalyst, either the strong sulfonic acid SPhSA or the milder phosphonic acid POH1, is dependent on the substrate and preferred reaction conditions. For each substrate reaction conditions have to be initially validated and variations in catalyst and reagent concentrations, solvents and temperature have to be investigated to enhance the reaction outcome. Variations in particle size, surface area and pore diameters are factors which can subsequently be explored to further optimise a particular process. The following examples illustrate the use of these heterogeneous catalysts for a number of typical acid-catalysed reactions. Further synthetic protocols including dehydrations and aldol condensations are described in J. Mol. Catal. A: Chem., 2008, 280, 96. Esterification: A solution of oleic acid (5 g, 1.8 mmol) in ethanol (25 mL) was added to the sulfonic acid catalyst SPhSA (1 g) and the mixture refluxed for 6 hours. Following the work-up described below oleic acid ethyl ester (5.5 g, 99%) was isolated in >99% purity. Alcohol Protection Tetrahydropyranylation: A mixture of an alcohol (5 mmol), dihydropyran (4 fold molar excess) and catalyst POH1 (50 mg) was stirred in ether (15 mL). Following the work-up described below the tetrahydropyran derivative was isolated cleanly and in >98% yield. Carbonyl Protection Ketalisation: A mixture of the ketone (40 mmol), ethylene glycol (6 mL) and catalyst POH1 (0.4 g) in toluene (30 mL) was refluxed under Dean and Stark conditions for 4 hours. Following the work-up described below the 1,3 dioxolane product was generally obtained in high purity and in >98% yield. Reaction Work-up and Product Isolation: On completion of the reaction, the reaction was cooled and the catalyst filtered off and washed with a suitable solvent. The combined filtrate was dried over MgSO4 and concentrated under reduced pressure. The catalyst was washed with methanol, dried and reused. Case Studies with PhosphonicS Heterogeneous Acid Catalysts Ketal Deprotection Preparation of a Medicinal Chemistry Intermediate N-Alloc-4-piperidone ethylene acetal (0.7 g, 3.3 mmol) was dissolved in acetone (10 mL) and water (0.5 mL). Heterogeneous phosphonic acid POH1 was added, and the mixture was stirred at reflux for 6 hours. The reaction was filtered through a sintered funnel and the clear filtrate evaporated in vacuo to give the piperidone product (0.6 g, quantitative yield, >95% purity).

Esterification of Fatty Acids with Catalyst SPhSA Esterification of both lauric and oleic acid with a variety of alcohols was performed in very high yields with primary alcohols using typically 5 mol% S of acid catalyst SPhSA, which can be recycled. Yields are generally better than those achieved with homogeneous and other heterogeneous sulfonic acid catalysts and with secondary alcohols the reaction remained clean and effective, though initial, unoptimised yields were reduced.

Immobilised Enzymes
Bio Catalysts
Biocatalysis is now established as a key technology in many chemistry-focused industries, offering greener, cleaner, shorter and more costeffective production steps. Immobilised enzymes (IEs) offer further enhanced benefits over their soluble counterparts in terms of stability, recycling/reuse and selectivity. These performance traits have resulted in widespread applications for IEs from heterogeneous biocatalysts to protein purification tools to analytical devices and beyond. As a further extension of our technology, we have recently undertaken the immobilisation of a variety of enzymes to our silica frameworks, within which key elements such as framework properties including particle size, pore size and hydrophobic character can all be readily varied, as can the nature of the linker employed for covalent attachment of the enzyme. The stability benefits of our IEs, where no enzyme leaching was observed even at elevated temperatures over long processing times, and even in organic solvent mixtures, were confirmed, meaning the biocatalysts could be recycled with reproducible results. These functionalised silica IEs have subsequently been used for a range of chemo-enzymatic synthesis applications to generate high-value chiral ligands of broad synthetic application. For example, chiral diones,1 precursors of chiral diene ligand metal complexes used as highly effective catalysts for asymmetric reactions such as additions to enones2 and arylations of tosylimines,3 were generated by the Carnell group in high enantioselectivity from resolution of an enol acetate by use of a lipase immobilised onto our PhosES silica supports. In this application, the benefit of hydrophobic modification of the IEs was clearly demonstrated by PhosES-03 outperforming unmodified variants in terms of enantioselectivity achieved, as well as a range of industry-standard methods for IE generation.

PhosES silica supports for enzyme attachment, featuring a range of linker functionalities and hydrophobic surface modifications as required, are available upon request please contact us directly for further information. In addition to the various applications described in this catalogue, we have applied our leading edge immobilisation skills to a range of challenging problems where use of our customised silica supports can present key performance benefits. We encourage companies to challenge us with their immobilisation requirements, allowing us to present positive, economically viable and workable solutions for application testing.
