Gel-entrapped bases: A smart window for the ligand-free Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling reaction

A gel-entrapped base has been fabricated by using agarose (biopolymer), and tested in the Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling reaction in 95% ethanol. The developed environmentally benign polymer-supported base has low leaching and high stability for the Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling reaction to give high yield with green credit.
