Application

4-Iodophenol can be used as a building block for the synthesis of:
  • Hydroxybiaryls by reacting with aryl boronic acids via Pd-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction.
  • Aryl substituted olefins by reacting with acrylates via Pd-catalyzed Heck reaction.
  • Iodinated-4-aryloxymethylcoumarins
  • Hydroxylated stilbenoids and psammaplysenes A and B.

[reaction: see text] Room-temperature ionic liquids promote various transition metal-catalyzed reactions in the solution phase. Here, for the first time, we show that these effects are translatable to solid-phase reactions. The Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of 4-iodophenol immobilized on polystyrene-Wang resin with
