Biphasic dimerisation of methylacrylate--immobilisation and stabilisation of cationic Pd-catalysts in ionic liquids by an ammoniumphosphine ligand.
The first continuous, biphasic, Pd-catalysed dimerisation of methylacrylate is described. The biphasic system has been realised by using a tetrafluoroborate ionic liquid as catalyst medium and an ammoniumphosphine ligand to immobilise and stabilise the Pd-catalyst.
