AB - To enjoy the benefits of homogeneous reactions with heterogeneous separations, novel solvent systems called Organic-Aqueous Tunable Systems are designed. Adding CO <inf>2</inf> to a miscible water-organic system, e.g., THF and water, will cause a phase split since the addition of CO <inf>2</inf> to THF increased the hydrophobicity of the THF. Hydrophobic reactants and a hydrophilic catalyst can be dissolved in one aqueous-organic solution. Once the reaction has been run homogeneously, CO <inf>2</inf> pressure can be used to split the water from the organic phase allowing for an easy separation of product and catalyst. The water and catalyst can now be easily recycled. This technique can be used with existing aqueous biphasic reactions to eliminate any mass transfer limitations; similar systems are also applicable for biocatalysis to bring substrates into intimate contact with the enzyme catalyst. This is an abstract of a paper presented at the 227th ACS National Meeting (Anaheim, CA 3/28/2004-4/1/2004).
