“…For organic synthetic methods, there have also been many reports in which PNIPAAm was applied for organic reactions, as well as transition metal-catalyzed reactions. Many of these studies involve the use of a cross-linked PNIPAAm gel [ 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 , 43 ]; however, examples of thermoresponsive micelles applied for organic synthesis are still rare [ 44 , 45 , 46 , 47 , 48 , 49 , 50 , 51 ]. We previously reported the utilization of PNIPAAm block copolymers that form thermoresponsive micelles in water for organic synthesis.…”
