| The use of microwave radiation to heat chemical reactions has become a powerful synthetic technique. In many cases reaction times can be reduced from days to hours or minutes. These presentations will outline a number of successful applications of this technology to metal catalyzed carbon-oxygen, carbon-phosphorus, and carbon-nitrogen bond forming reactions as well as classic organic transformations. The results of changes in key reaction parameters such as the temperature, pressure, catalyst loading, solvent choice, and microwave power will be presented. | |||
