Abstract
The kinetics of different reaction systems were reviewed for the phase-transfer catalysis under microwave (MW) irradiation conditions. The different factors on the reaction kinetics were reviewed. The advantages of chemical reaction / conversion under MW irradiation conditions were highlighted. Notably these reactions avoid longer reaction times, enhance the product yield and reduce the organic solvent. Developments of this methodology and selectivity of different reactions were presented.
Keywords: Reaction kinetics, bromotoluene, phase-transfer catalysis, MW irradiation, chloronitrobenzen, etherification.
