The use of immobilised crown ethers as in-situ protecting groups for organic synthesis within flow reactors (2008)
Thesis
Wild, P. G. (2008). The use of immobilised crown ethers as in-situ protecting groups for organic synthesis within flow reactors. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4208618

Organic synthesis often requires one functional group of a bifunctionalised compound to be rendered temporarily inert to allow the selective reaction of another moiety. While protecting groups are used to remove the problem of the functional group in...
