announced his initial results on the use of [bmim][BF4] for the Suzuki cross-coupling reaction. This reaction typically employs a palladium catalyst to synthesize biaryl compounds by the cross-coupling of a functionalized haloarene with phenylboronic acid. "As with other palladium-catalyzed C-C coupling reactions, the Suzuki reaction suffers from a number of drawbacks, such as catalyst loss into the product, catalyst decomposition, and poor reagent solubilities. "We postulated that these problems might be resolved by the use of ionic liquids." He reported that [bmim][BF4] increases the rate of the Suzuki reaction by several orders of magnitude when compared with conventional systems and that the catalytic solution can be reused several times without loss of activity. the chemistry of room-temperature ionic liquids is at an incredibly exciting stage of its development. Because many of the systems are easy to handle, they allow those without specialist knowledge of the field to use them. "Potentially, any reaction may produce interesting results in ionic liquids, and the discovery of the new chemistry waiting to be found will be a mammoth task," he concluded |
