What solvents are compatible with SynPhase™ Lanterns? What are the swelling characteristics of SynPhase™ Lanterns in various solvents?
The physical properties of the SynPhase Lanterns ensure compatibility with a wide range of solvents over a wide temperature range with minimal swelling of the inert base polymer. Table 4, p5 of the SynPhase Technical Note SCN001 lists the swelling characteristics of Lanterns in several common solvents and reagents at 40°C, 70°C and 100°C. Whilst the SynPhase Lanterns themselves are compatible with all solvents listed, those solvents of a hydrophilic nature are not recommended for synthesis.
