Abstract

A novel polymer-supported imidazolium salt has been prepared from a bisimidazolium salt and cross-linked chloromethyl polystyrene. The polymer-supported N-heterocyclic carbene-palladium complex, generated from the supported bisimidazolium salt and Pd(OAc)2, efficiently catalyzed the Suzuki coupling reaction of aryl bromides and arylboronic acids under air in aqueous DMF ­solution at room temperature, giving biaryls in good to excellent yields. The catalyst could be reused several times still retaining high activity.
