Abstract
[GRAPHICS] Heck coupling of aryl halides or benzoic anhydride with alkenes can be perf ormed with excellent yields in room-temperature ionic liquids, which provid e a medium that dissolves the palladium catalyst and allows the product and byproducts to be easily separated. Consequently, the catalyst and ionic li quid can be recycled and reused.
