The search for efficient and versatile reaction medium to perform transition-metal-catalyzed reactions is a continuous challenge to the synthetic community. Organic solvents have been traditionally employed for this task, nevertheless, new environmentally friendly, safe, and economically viable alternatives are still highly sought after. In this context, herein, we present an overview of some interesting applications of aqueous microemulsions (oil-in-water, O/W) for transition metal catalyzed reactions as an alternative and promising aqueous-organic reaction medium that has been found to be a highly effective tool in overcoming some environmental or practical issues presented by traditional organic solvents.

Cyclopentyl methyl ether and 2-methyltetrahydrofuran, low impact ethereal solvents forming a positive azeotrope with water, were successfully employed as solvents in the synthesis of a variety of acetals carried out under Dean–Stark conditions in the presence of heterogeneous acidic catalysts. Under these conditions, ammonium salts, either as such or supported on SiO2, performed better or equally well than widely employed homogeneous and heterogeneous acidic catalysts such as p-toluenesulfonic acid, Amberlyst 15®, or Montmorillonite K10. Several examples highlight the advantage of tuning the relative acidities of ammonium salts by appropriately selecting the counterion. Within one of these examples, our protocol clearly outweighs the classic p-toluenesulfonic acid/toluene protocol in terms of chemoselectivity. Silica-supported catalysts were characterized by SEM, TEM, and FTIR spectroscopies, as well as by N2 physisorption. Such a characterization reveals an even distribution of ammonium salts on silica, thus confirming the formation of expected catalytic supports.

The first catalytic enantioselective α-sulfenylation of deconjugated butyrolactams has been developed using dimeric cinchona alkaloids as catalysts in water-enriched reaction medium. The applicability of the same catalyst system for enantioselective α-selenylation and formal vinylogous γ-hydroxylation of deconjugated butyrolactam has also been described.
