NOVECAL has a strong expertise in organometallic complexes synthesis and catalysis. We produce catalysts supported on calixarenes macrocycles. These catalysts exhibit very interesting features for the promotion of reactions such as Suzuki-Miyaura and Buchwald-Hartwig couplings, reduction or enantioselective ring-opening of epoxides:
- Excellent efficiency with low catalyst amount
- Easy to eliminate (filterable) with low leaching
- Efficient even in concentrated media
- Little impact on the process (viscosity…)
- Air stable / easy to handle and to store
- High and reproducible metal content inside catalysts / little waste generated
- Large scope of substrates compatible
NOVECAL also proposes functionalized imidazolium salts (precursors of carbenes), enabling easy attachment on molecules, macromolecules or inorganic supports.
