Abstract
The palladium-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling (SMC) reaction has received worldwide attention as a powerful and convenient synthetic tool for the formation of biaryl compounds. However, these reactions are highly dependent on the activity and stable of catalysts. Herein, the support morphology-dependent catalytic performance of SMC reactions was investigated. The truncated hexagonal bipyramid (α-Fe2O3-O) and rod-shaped morphologies of alpha-Fe2O3 (α-Fe2O3-R) were used as support to prepare PdCu nanoparticles (NPs) catalysts by NaBH4 reduction method. For PdCu/α-Fe2O3-R catalysts, the smaller size of PdCu NPs and more low coordination Pd sites leading to its superior catalytic performance for SMC reactions. Furthermore, it can be easily recycled through centrifugation and reused several times without obvious loss on its catalytic performance. Identical location transmission electron microscopy method was used to investigate the structural evolution of PdCu/α-Fe2O3-R catalysts. The results found that its structure almost unchanged during the catalytic reaction.
