Pd(OAc)2 in WERSA: a novel green catalytic system for Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions at room temperature

Chem Commun (Camb). 2015 Jul 21;51(57):11489-92. doi: 10.1039/c5cc04561d.

Abstract

A recyclable/reusable Pd(OAc)2 catalysed Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction condition in neat "Water Extract of Rice Straw Ash" (WERSA) at room temperature was developed. This is a ligand/base/promoter/additive/organic media free protocol.
