Ligand- and copper-free Sonogashira and Heck couplings of (Het)aryl chlorides and bromides catalyzed by palladium nanoparticles supported on in situ generated Al(OH)3
The ligand- and copper-free Sonogashira reaction of (Het)aryl halides (Br and Cl) with various terminal alkynes and the Heck coupling of (Het)aryl halides (Br and Cl) with a series of olefins, catalyzed by palladium nanoparticles supported on newly generated Al(OH)3, were developed. The catalyst can be readily recovered and reused 6 times without significant loss of activity and palladium leaching.
Double arylation of diynes and alkynylation of functionalized heteroaryl halides by a practical heck reaction in an ionic liquid
The efficient palladium-catalyzed alkynylation of electron-rich bromoheteroarenes, incorporating deactivating electron-donating methyl and methoxy groups, and the (hetero)arylation of diynes, take place in the imidazolium ionic liquid [BMIM][BF4/sub
