The reactions are rapid and highly stereoselective when water is used as solvent. The stereoselectivities were under influence of configurations of a prolyl residue of the catalyst and α-chiral aldehydes. Water soluble prolinamido-glycoside catalysts are easily separable from reaction mixture and can be recycled and re-used several times.展开更多

This has stimulated studies to develop and adopt novel techniques which consider the removal of pollutants with premium on economic feasibility, simple instrumentation, and high performance. In the treatment of water, the removal of trace concentration organic compounds and other numerous polluted water effluents is difficult due to limited affinity of trace compound ions to ion exchange resins. Because of the selective nature;recognition properties;adsorption ability;high stability;and easier preparation of molecular imprints, they are considered attractive and suitable artificial receptors to be applied in analytical separations, drug delivery, and as chemical sensors. In this review, we touch on the fundamentals of molecularly imprinted technologies and underscore some recent advances made in the development of imprinted polymers that are compatible with water and how they can be used in the clean-up of pollutants. The paper finally presents a comprehensive report on some challenges and outlook in the use of MIPs as water treatment sorbent.展开更多
