SiliaBond® TBD
SiliaBond® TBD (1,5,7-Triazabicyclo[4.4.0]dec-5-ene, Si-TBD) is a silica bound bicyclic guanidine moiety that is sufficiently basic to deprotonate moderately acidic hydrogens. It is most commonly used for the alkylation of phenols (Williamson ether synthesis) and amines, and the esterification of carboxylic acids using alkyl halides. It may also be used to scavenge boronic acids such as phenylboronic acid: 98% removal with 1 equivalent in DCM at room temperature after 1 h.
