Abstract

A new magnetic nanoparticles-supported palladium(II) nanomagnetic catalyst (Pd-AcAc-Am-Fe3O4@SiO2) was synthesized and characterized using attenuated total reflectance infrared spectroscopy (ATR-IR), inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). The nanomagnetic catalyst was used as an efficient catalyst for the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of various aryl bromides/chlorides/iodides with phenylboronic acid. The effect of varying solvents, base, temperature, reaction time and catalyst amount on the performance of the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling is investigated. The notable advantages of heterogeneous nanomagnetic catalyst are excellent yields, mild reaction conditions, short reaction time, easy magnetic work-up and recyclability. Moreover, the new nanomagnetic catalyst could be easily recovered with an external magnet and reused at least six times without significant loss of its catalytic activity.
