Abstract
The immobilisation of an oxime-based palladacycle on polyvinylpyridine (PVP) resin affords a reusable, air, moisture and thermally stable palladium precatalyst which exerts high activity in Suzuki-Miyaura reactions both in batch as well as continuous-flow processes. Evidence is presented which shows that, besides serving as an anchor for the precatalyst, PVP also acts as a scavenger for Pd particles present in solution.
Key words
continuous-flow process - heterogeneous catalysis - homogeneous catalysis - microreactor - microwave - palladium - Suzuki-Miyaura reaction

1 Homogeneous refers to a definition, given by Schwartz, which is based on an uniform active site while the system is called heterogeneous if the active site consists of irregular sites; see: Schwartz J.

32 From in industrial point of view, it is commonly advantageous to promote continuous addition of reactants to an immobilised catalyst compared to repeatedly carrying out batch-wise procedures with the same catalyst. Indeed, each reisolation of the catalysts exerts stress on it which leads to reduced performance in the next run.

34 It should be noted that use of solvents with better complexing properties than water, such as DMF, gave supernatants which, unlike in cases of aqueous solvents, still showed catalytic activity in Heck reactions. Similar observations were noted by: Nowotny W.

38 Pugin noted site isolation effects for immobilised neutral rhodium and iridium catalysts. Low loading turned out to be beneficial for the catalytic process, whereas high loading renders the catalysts inactive, possibly due to dimerisation: Pugin B.
