Palladium-Catalysed Arylation of Butyl Acrylate and Acrylamide with Aryl Iodides in Water

Abstract
The Heck arylation of butyl acrylate and acrylamide with aryl iodides in the presence of catalytic amounts of palladium acetate and tetra-n-butylammonium bromide in pure water using potassium carbonate as base gave the corresponding substituted (E)-butyl cinnamates and (E)-cinnamamides in good yields, respectively.
