Multiple template approach

Figure 32.2 Scheme detailing a multiple templating approach [34]. 

The use of multiple otherwise incompatible catalysts allows multistep reactions to proceed in one reaction vessel, providing many potential benefits. In this chapter, literature examples of nanoencapsulation for the purpose of process intensification have been discussed comprehensively. Current efforts in the literature are mostly concentrated in the areas of LbL template-based nanoencapsulation and sol-gel immobilization. Other cascade reactions (without the use of nanoencapsulation) that allow the use of incompatible catalysts were also examined and showcased as potential targets for nanoencapsulation approaches. Finally, different methods for nanoencapsulation were investigated, thereby suggesting potential ways forward for cascade reactions that use incompatible catalysts, solvent systems, or simply incompatible reaction conditions. 

Applications of the TASP approach are then considered for such aspects as four-helical bundles (Section 13.1.2.4.2)J4 The details of structures and synthetic routes for the preparation of the bundles are described. Other chain assemblies and applications are discussed (Section 13.1.2.5) including metal-ion assisted self assemblies, disulfide linkages in the formation of four-helical bundles (Section 13.1.2.5.2), multiple antigenic peptide systems (Section 13.1.2.5.4), and templates constructed from a trialdehyde template by reductive amination to form a three-helical bundle (Section 13.1.2.5.5))5 ...
