Aqueous Mizoroki–Heck coupling reactions under microwave irradiation (MW) were carried out with a colloidal Pd nanocatalyst stabilized with poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP). Many stilbenes and novel heterostilbenes were achieved in good to excellent yields starting from aryl bromides and different olefins. The reaction was carried out in a short reaction time and with low catalyst loading, leading to high turnover frequency (TOFs of the order of 100 h−1). The advantages like operational simplicity, high robustness, efficiency and turnover frequency, the utilization of aqueous media and simple product work-up make this protocol a great option for stilbene syntheses by Mizoroki–Heck reaction.

Enabling technologies and methodologies were established and combined to afford various environmentally benign processes for laboratory-scale organic synthesis and for the production of fine chemicals, intermediates and pharmaceuticals. The technologies comprised continuous and batch microwave reactors and catalytic membranes. The methodologies included solvent-free conditions, catalysed or uncatalysed processes, the use of aqueous media at high temperature and non-extractive techniques for product isolation. Applications included Hofmann eliminations, Willgerodt and Jacobs–Gould reactions, indole transformations, aldol condensation, Rupe and Meyer–Schuster rearrangements and C–C coupling reactions (including a tandem Heck coupling–dehydrogenation). New processes for catalytic etherification, uncatalysed hydrogen transfer and a one-step arylamidation were also developed. Typical products were N-(4-hydroxyphenyl)acetamide, carvacrol, a-phenylacetamide, cinnamaldehyde, cinnamyl alcohol, acetophenone, indole, 3-hydroxy-1,2-dimethyl-4-pyridone, di(2-phenylethyl) ether, di(cyclopropylmethyl) ether, 3-methylcyclopent-2-enone and a synthetic precursor of nalidixic acid.

Iodine-alumina was employed as a catalyst in the coupling reactions of aldehydes, enolizable ketones, or 1,3-dicarbonyls with methyl carbamate or aromatic amines under microwave irradiation to afford β-amino carbonyl compounds in good-to-excellent yields. The key features of this environmentally friendly methodology are its operational simplicity, mild reaction conditions, and less reaction time.

Two new palladium complexes with pyrazole derived ligands 2a–2b have been easily prepared and well characterized by elemental analysis, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and IR spectra. Their detailed structures are determined by a single-crystal X-ray analysis of 2a. The two compounds were successfully applied to the Suzuki coupling reactions of aryl bromides with phenylboronic acid, in aqueous solution at room temperature under air, giving the desired coupled products in good to excellent yields with catalyst loadings as low as 0.01–0.05 mol-%.

Seven N2- and N3-ligands (L1–L7) were developed for the ligand-assisted CuI-catalyzed coupling reactions of aryl halides with phenols. The structural and electronic effects were studied for various combinations of pyridine and/or imine nitrogen binding sites in the ligands. 2-(1-Pyrazolyl)pyridine (L1) featuring two types of binding sites gave the best results, with yields of up to 90% at 100 °C at a catalyst loading of 10 mol% (CuI/L in 1:1 ratio). A non-radical mechanism, proposed for the L1-promoted coupling reaction, well explained the different effects of electronic nature of the substituent and steric hindrance on phenols and aryl halides.

In this report, chitin and chitosan nanocrystals were used as biomass-based supports for Pd nanoparticles (NPs) used as a heterogeneous catalyst for the Heck coupling reaction. By using a one-pot fabrication method, a Pd salt precursor was directly reduced and deposited onto these nanocrystal catalysts. Characterization of these nanocomposites showed disperse Pd NPs on the surfaces of the chitinous nanocrystals. Heck coupling model reactions revealed full product yield in relatively benign conditions, outcompeting the use of other catalysts supported on biomass-based nanomaterials, including cellulose nanocrystals. These initial results show the potential for using chitinous nanomaterials as effective catalyst supports in cross-coupling reactions.

Palladium-based carbon catalysts (Pd/C) can be potentially applied as an efficient catalyst for Suzuki–Miyaura and Mizoroki–Heck coupling reactions. Herein, a variety of catalysts of palladium on activated carbon were prepared by varying the content of ‘Pd’ via an in situ reduction method, using hydrogen as a reducing agent. The as-prepared catalysts (0.5 wt % Pd/C, 1 wt % Pd/C, 2 wt % Pd/C and 3 wt % Pd/C) were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) analyses. The catalysts were tested as a coupling catalyst for Suzuki–Miyaura coupling reactions involving aryl halides and phenyl boronic acid. The optimization of the catalyst by varying the palladium content on the activated carbon yielded Pd/C catalysts with very high catalytic activity for Suzuki reactions of aryl halides and a Mizoroki–Heck cross-coupling reaction of 4-bromoanisol and acrylic acid in an aqueous medium. A high ‘Pd’ content and uniform ‘Pd’ impregnation significantly affected the activity of the catalysts. The catalytic activity of 3% Pd/C was found to make it a more efficient catalyst when compared with the other synthesized Pd/C catalysts. Furthermore, the catalyst reusability was also tested for Suzuki reactions by repeatedly performing the same reaction using the recovered catalyst. The 3% Pd/C catalyst displayed better reusability even after several reactions.
