Abstract

Chemistry Chemistry, Organic Physical Sciences Science & Technology
EtSiCl3-treated silica gel, C-2 silica,' proved exceptionally effective for purifying isocyanides that are otherwise irreversibly adsorbed during silica gel chromatography. Purification of a prototypical isocyanide on several chromatographic matrices provided valuable insight into the requirements for purifying silica-sensitive isocyanides. EtSiCl3-modified silica proved optimal as the solid phase, providing up to 90% recovery of pure isocyanides that otherwise fail to elute during silica gel purification.
