Abstract

A sustainable procedure for the Heck-Matsuda reaction between arenediazonium salts and olefins combines the high reactivity attained in homogeneous catalysis with the recovery of palladium metal by simple filtration usually encountered in heterogeneous catalysis by using Pd(OAc)₂ in the presence of charcoal.
