Abstract
Phosphonium bromide ionic liquids are superior media in the carbonylation of aryl and vinyl halides. Formation of acid bromide intermediates was detected in control experiments providing an extended view on the overall catalytic cycle involved. Solvent-free product isolation and recycling of the ionic liquid containing active Pd-catalyst are also demonstrated.
