A bifunctional palladated rasta resin for Mizoroki–Heck reactions

Bifunctional palladated rasta resins 2b and 2c bearing both phosphino and basic amino groups have been successfully used for Mizoroki–Heck reactions between aryl iodides and alkenes without adding a soluble base. We have also shown that 2c can be easily regenerated after reaction and reused. To the best of our knowledge, this work represents the first use of a bifunctional palladated polymer for a CC bond forming reaction.
