Abstract
Linear polystyrene-stabilized Rh(III) nanoparticles (PS-Rh(III)NPs) were obtained when an aqueous solution of RhCl3 was stirred at 90 °C in the presence of KOH, 4-methylphenylboronic acid, and linear polystyrene, as indicated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). PS-Rh(III)NPs exhibited high catalytic activity for the oxidative coupling of arylboronic acids with alkenes. In contrast, PS-Rh(0)NPs prepared with NaBH4 had little activity for the same reaction.
