solubilize many organometallic compounds. These properties, <strong>in</strong> addition to its<br />

controllable miscibility with water and immiscibility with ether, make [bmim][BF4] a<br />

potential solvent for Suzuki <strong>reaction</strong>s (Mathews et al. 2000).<br />

Mathews et al. have demonstrated that Suzuki <strong>cross</strong>-coupl<strong>in</strong>g <strong>reaction</strong>s of<br />

electron-rich and electron-deficient aryl bromides with arylboronic acids and their<br />

derivatives can be successfully conducted <strong>in</strong> 19 and at ambient temperature (Mathews et<br />

al. 2000).<br />

The Suzuki <strong>cross</strong>-coupl<strong>in</strong>g <strong>reaction</strong>s of aryl chlorides with arylboronic acids<br />

were also achieved <strong>in</strong> a phosphonium salt ionic liquid, tetradecylphosphonium chloride,<br />

20 (Figure 3.4), <strong>in</strong> 1,3-di-n-butylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate [bbim][BF4] <strong>in</strong> the<br />

presence of K3PO4 and a catalytic amount of Pd2(dba)3, as well as <strong>in</strong> the ionic liquid<br />

(McNulty et al. 2002).<br />

One another general strategy to transform a homogeneous catalyst <strong>in</strong>to a<br />

heterogeneous catalyst is to anchor the active site onto an <strong>in</strong>soluble support. Two types<br />
