A novel and ligand-free method was developed for the decarboxylative cross-coupling of alkynylcarboxylic acids with arylboronic acids. By using an environmentally friendly H2O–poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG-400) system as the reaction medium, a series of internal alkynes were synthesized in good yields and with remarkable selectivity. The Pd(OAc)2–H2O–PEG-400 catalytic system could be used for up to three cycles without any loss of activity, demonstrating the robustness of the approach.

Poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) supported metal nitrates such as ferric nitrate and manganese nitrate were accomplished as well-organized reagents for Hunsdiecker conversion of α,β-unsaturated acids to β-nitrostyrenes under acid-free and solvent free conditions using grind-stone technique. However, in the case of unsaturated aliphatic acids, nitro alkene derivatives were obtained as products. PEG-400 was found the best among the other PEGs (PEG-200,300, 400, 600, 3000 and 6000) used in this protocol.

An efficient and convenient approach for the synthesis of thiazole derivatives from α-halo ketones, thiosemicarbazide, and o-hydroxybenzaldehydes in poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG-400) is described. The preparation procedure presented is operationally simple and environmentally benign. Some of the major advantages of this procedure are high yields and ease of operation.

p-Phenylcalix[4]arene is formed directly from p-phenylphenol in 66% yield (50% isolated yield) using poly(ethylene glycol) as the reaction medium, with crystallization of the pure cavitand from toluene mediated by p-carborane. The solid-state structure comprises interlocking columnar arrays.
