Abstract

Phase-transfer catalysis has been extensively used to promote a variety of interfacial reactions. Most of the examples of this method involve transport of a reactant from the water phase into the organic phase where reactions take place. Recently, a new class of reactions involving transport of an organic-soluble reactant into an aqueous phase for reaction has been found. The recent reports describe a new example of this virtually unexplored method, which is named inverse phase-transfer catalysis (IPTC).
