Abstract

Abstract Amine-functionalized core-shell Fe2O3 hollow spheres (h-Fe2O3@SiO2 N) were decorated with Cl-functionalized cyclodextrin nanosponge, CDNS-Cl, covalently. The resulting hybrid system, h-Fe2O3@SiO2 CDNS, was then used as a magnetically separable support for immobilization of Pd(0) nanoparticles, derived from a bio-based approach. The obtained catalyst, Pd@h-Fe2O3@SiO2 CDNS, was characterized by using SEM/EDS, TEM, XRD, BET, ICP-AES, FTIR, TGA and VSM. Moreover, the catalytic activity of Pd@h-Fe2O3@SiO2 CDNS was confirmed for ligand and copper-free Heck and Sonogashira coupling reactions in aqueous media. Comparison of the catalytic activity of the Pd@h-Fe2O3@SiO2 CDNS and Pd@h-Fe2O3@SiO2, established superior catalytic activity of former indicating the role of CDNS in catalysis. Furthermore, the catalytic activity and recyclability of Pd@h-Fe2O3@SiO2 CDNS was higher than that of Pd@CDNS. The catalyst could be successfully recycled for several consecutive reaction times with slight loss of the catalytic activity. The ICP-AES analysis confirmed that the leaching of Pd nanoparticles was negligible upon each reaction cycle.
