The Heck Reaction of Allylic Alcohols Catalyzed by Palladium Nanoparticles in Water: Chemoenzymatic Synthesis of (R)-(−)-Rhododendrol

TL;DR: The Heck reaction of aryl iodides with allylic alcohols under aerobic conditions in water is described in this article, and a two-step one-pot process, involving a Heck reaction followed by an enantioselective enzyme-catalyzed reduction, is applied to the synthesis of (R)-(−)-rhododendrol.
Journal ArticleDOI

Palladium nanoparticles supported on an organic-inorganic fluorinated hybrid material. Application to microwave-based heck reaction.

TL;DR: Recycling studies have shown that the catalyst can be readily recovered and reused several times without significant loss of activity, and reactions and recovery of the solid-supported palladium catalyst system can be carried out in the presence of air.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phosphine-Free Perfluoro-Tagged Palladium Nanoparticles Supported on Fluorous Silica Gel: Application to the Heck Reaction†

TL;DR: The immobilization of phosphine-free perfluoro-tagged palladium nanoparticles Pd-1 on fluorous silica gel (FSG) and their utilization in the Heck reaction have been investigated and high yield vinylic substitution products have been obtained.
