Naphthalenomethyl-substituted imidazolidinium salts (1a-g) were prepared and characterized by conventional spectroscopic methods, H-1 NMR, C-13 NMR, FTIR, and elemental analysis techniques. The in situ prepared three component systems naphthalenomethyl-substituted imidazolidinium salts, Pd(OAc)(2), and K2CO3 catalyzed quantitatively the Mizoroki-Heck and Suzuki-Miyaura coupling of aryl halides under mild conditions in aqueous media.
