• catalysis in one system. Thus, with catalysts permanently linked to the block copolymer, metal leaching is substantially reduced and allows for the separation/reuse of the catalyst [1][2][3][4][5][6][7]. In cases where reactions are run in polar media, the catalyst is best located inside the hydrophobic
