    very hazardous materials for the environment. Through the use of catalysts, this reaction could be made to produce less waste and use different, less hazardous starting materials. A Heck reaction was used in order to test this hypothesis on 1,1-dibromoalkene compounds that were created in accordance to the first half of the reaction. No products were successfully synthesized and characterization of the reaction by NMR and GC-MS showed only the presence of starting materials. 3:20 pm - Surface
