Abstract:
The interface as a "screw clamp": the copper-free 1,3-dipolar azide-alkyne cycloaddition at the interface of nanodroplets in miniemulsions was studied in detail by NMR spectroscopic methods. The reaction at the oil-water interface proved to exhibit higher rate constants, increased molecular weights and high regioregularity compared to the reaction in solution.
