description

Covalent immobilization of 4-hydroxybenzophenone on Merrifield resins affords new heterogeneous polymeric triplet photocatalysts. Their successful application in the intramolecular triplet-sensitized photolysis of a α-diazo β-keto ester has been achieved under sustainable criteria. Remarkably, the simple recovery and reuse for up to five sequential applications have been performed, although resulting in a slightly decreasing activity.
