Abstract
Ultrafine Pd nanoparticles (dm=2.3nm), obtained by metal vapor synthesis technique, were immobilized into a poly(4-vinylpyridine)-based porous monolith by means of a new synthetic approach. The synthesis involves stabilization of Pd nanoparticles with 4-vinylpyridine ligand and their subsequent immobilization into the monolith by radical co-polymerization of the resulting metal-embedding monomer with ethylene glycol dimethacrylate in presence of porogenic agents (i.e. DMF and PEG-400) inside stainless-steel columns (HPLC type). The hybrid monolithic reactors containing highly dispersed Pd nanoparticles were effectively used as catalyst for Mizoroki–Heck cross-coupling reactions carried out under continuous-flow conditions. The devices showed long life-time (>65h) and very low Pd leaching (<2ppm).
