Outline of Final Research Achievements

Due to the increasing concerns on developments of sustainable chemical technologies, there have been huge demands for process, which combines high production efficiency, low environmental burden, high hygiene level, and economic viability, altogether. In the perspective, utilization of water as reaction media in a chemical process would be one of the most attractive solution. The end of this research is developing cross-coupling reaction utilizing high temperature high pressure water, directing toward creation of efficient and green chemical process for key raw materials of super engineering plastics. Thorough the research, successful results were achieved; the developed microflow process enabled cross coupling reactions with reduced amount of catalysts and base in extremely accelerated reaction time.
