Abstract

A hybrid system was designed and synthesized through reacting modified halloysite (Hal-Cl) with Schiff base (DAB-PC) and applied as catalytic support for anchoring Pd NPs to afford Pd@Hal-DAB-PC catalyst. The resultant material was well identified by various analyses including Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction patterns (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) and revealed outstanding catalytic activity in the Sonogashira reaction in aqueous media. Also, This nanocatalyst was simply collected and recycled up to six runs with a slight drop in efficiency, indicating the durability of Pd@Hal-DAB-PC.

Highlights

  • A hybrid system was designed and synthesized through reacting modified halloysite (Hal-Cl) with Schiff base (DAB-PC) and applied as catalytic support for anchoring Pd NPs to afford Pd@HalDAB-PC catalyst

  • As a part of our efforts towards developing environmentally–friendly catalytic systems for chemical transformations, such as cross-coupling ­reactions[26,27,28,29,30], we described the fabrication of a novel heterogeneous catalyst, Pd@Hal-DAB-PC, using a multi-step modification of halloysite and stabilization of Pd NPs (Scheme 1) and its utilization in the Sonogashira reaction

  • All the materials utilized for the fabrication of the catalyst and doing Sonogashira reactions, such as Hal, CPTES, 1H-benzimidazole-2,5-diamine (DAB), pyridine-2-carbaldehyde (PC), triethylamine, palladium chloride, aryl halides, propargyl alcohol, phenylacetylene, NaOH, ­K2CO3, toluene, ethanol, and methanol were obtained from Sigma‐Aldrich and applied as supplied
