3. SiliaBond® Metal Scavengers Characteristics

SiliaBond® Metal Scavengers are made of SiliaFlash® F60 (40-63 μm, 60 Å, 500 m2/g) and endcapped to avoid non-specific binding (undesirable interactions with the free silanols). Therefore, they present the following characteristics:

  • No leaching (chemical stability): no API contamination by the metal scavenger. High selectivity: total recovery of the API.
  • Very good metal affinity: efficient for a wide range of metal catalysts.
  • Solvent compatibility: can be used in any solvent, aqueous (pH 2 to 12) and organic.
  • Fast kinetic: even at room temperature.
  • Easily scalable: from mg up to multi-ton scale.
  • Thermally and mechanically stable synthesizers.
  • Ease of use: no swelling or static charge.
  • Flexible formats: amenable to use in SiliaSep & SiliaPrep Cartridges.
  • Cost efficient: low cost per gram of metal scavenged.
  • Controlled loading

  1. SiliaMetS® Cysteine

    SiliaMetS® Cysteine

    SiliaMetS® Cysteine (Si-Cys) is the silica bound equivalent of the amino acid Cysteine. By attaching the molecule to the backbone via the amino group, the thiol group remains free and accessible for higher metal scavenging efficiency. It is a versatile metal scavenger for a variety of metals including Pd, Sn, Ru, Pt, Cu, Rh, Cd and Sc under a wide range of conditions and the preferred metal scavenger for tin residues.

  2. SiliaMetS® Imidazole

    SiliaMetS® Imidazole

    SiliaMetS® Imidazole (Si-IMI) is a versatile metal scavenger for a variety of metals including Cd, Co, Cu, Fe, Ni, Pd, and Rh under a wide range of conditions and the preferred metal scavenger for iron catalysts.

    SiliaMetS Imidazole can also be used as an amine base in systems that are generally sensitive to basic conditions compared to other SiliaMetS supported bases.

  3. SiliaMetS® TAAcONa

    SiliaMetS® TAAcONa

    SiliaMetS® TAAcONa or (or SiliaMetS Triaminetetraacetate, sodium salt) is a silica bound metal scavenger for Pd(II), Ni(II) and Cu. It is the supported version of EDTA in its sodium salt form. It is an effective scavenger for metals in higher oxidation state, 2+ or higher.
