| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Investigation of new catalysts for coupling reactions in water, which is a safer solvent compared with toxic and/or flammable organic solvents, was performed. Sugar units were introduced into metal complex catalysts to enhance their water solubility. Palladium, nickel, and rhodium were used to synthesize metal complexes. The complexes worked as catalysts for carbon-carbon coupling reactions in water but not for carbon-sulfur coupling.
Multinuclear complexes containing sulfide ligands were also synthesized. Electrochemical measurements of these complexes in the presence of alkyl halides suggested their potential of applications for coupling reactions.
