Description:

Polyethylene glycol (PEG) is found to be an inexpensive and nontoxic reaction medium for the microwave-assisted Suzuki cross-coupling of arylboronic acids with aryl halides. This environmentally friendly microwave protocol offers the ease of operation and enables the recyclability of catalyst and the synthesis of a variety of substituted biaryls employing palladium chloride as catalyst and potassium fluoride as the base.
