Abstract
Amberlite IRA-400 (basic) has been used as a base in the Heck reaction and the generated quarternary ammonium salt might also be assisting in the reaction. The reaction is clean, simple and yields are high. The resin can be regenerated, recycled and the work-up procedure becomes simple compared to other bases used.
