Abstract
The present invention refers to new classes of polymerisable monomers, to molecularly imprinted polymers obtainable by polymerisation of at least one of the monomers and a crosslinking monomer in the presence of a template molecule. The obtained polymers may be used for separation of enantiomers, diastereomers of the template molecule, and also for separation of the template molecule or template molecule analogues from structurally related compounds.
Claims6
A polymerisable functional monomer, wherein said monomer is a strong hydrogen bond donating monomer that is unable to function as a hydrogen bond acceptor, preferably a N,N′-disubstituted phenyl urea monomer of the formula
- 27
- wherein X, Y and Z are independently selected from the group consisting of H, NO2, CF3 and halide, with the proviso that at least one of X and Y are not H.
