Abstract

Recently, transition metal-catalyzed reactions in a fluorous biphasic system (FBS) have become one of the most important methods for facile catalyst separation from the reaction mixture and recycling of the catalyst.'In this catalytic system, the metal catalyst coordinated by perfluoroalkylated ligands can dissolve into the fluorous phase containing the product after the reaction.'Furthermore, FBS has the advantage of possible use for water-sensitive ...
