title: Suzuki-Miyaura Micellar Cross-Coupling in Water, at Room Temperature, and under Aerobic Atmosphere.
abstract: Recently, oxygen-equilibrated water solutions of Kolliphor EL, a well-known surfactant, have been seen to form nanomicelles with oxygen-free cores. This has prompted the successful testing of the core environment as a green medium for palladium-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura cross couplings. The versatility of these conditions is endorsed by several examples, including the synthesis of relevant molecular semiconductors. The reaction medium can also be recycled, opening the way for an extremely easy and green chemistry compliant methodology.
