Abstract

l-Arginine (2-amino-5-guanidinopentanoic acid) acts as a base and ligand in reaction medium, exhibits a very high activity and recyclability to palladium-catalyzed C-C and C-N cross-coupling reactions in aqueous media. The corresponding Suzuki products were obtained in good to excellent yields by using various aryl halides (I, Br, Cl). Also, the cross coupling reactions of arylboronic acids with various amines in aqueous medium proceed in good to excellent yield under same conditions. Furthermore, the catalyst could be easily separated from the reaction mixture and could be recycled several times without significant loss in its catalytic activity.
