Organic chemistry microscale green

Palladium-catalyzed cross-couplings are among the most important reactions in modem organic chemistry for carbon-carbon bond formation 26), Yet, these reactions are rarely mentioned in introductory organic chemistry texts or in laboratory manuals (27). Below we present microscale, green variations of two such reactions that we have developed for the introductory organic chemistry laboratory. 

Pedersen and Myers. Class-tested by thousands of students and using simple equipment and green chemistry ideas, this laboratory manual includes 36 experiments that introduce traditional as well as recently developed synthetic methods. Offering up-to-date and novel experiments not found in other lab manuals, this innovative book focuses on safety, gives students practice in the basic techniques used in the organic lab, and includes microscale experiments, many drawn from the recent literature.
