Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of aryl chlorides in water using ligandless palladium on activated carbon

Article abstract of DOI:10.1055/s-2005-869877

Aqueous reaction conditions that activate various aryl chlorides in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling have been developed. These environment friendly conditions utilize ligandless Pd/C (Pd concentrations 0.2-2 mol%) that allow easy separation of the catalyst at the end of the reaction. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart.
