Pd nanoparticles on a porous ionic copolymer: a highly active and recyclable catalyst for Suzuki–Miyaura reaction under air in water

Abstract

A porous copolymer of an IL with divinylbenzene was prepared and applied as a support for Pd nanoparticles. The supported Pd nanocatalyst was found to be extremely active for Suzuki-Miyaura reaction of aryl bromides and chlorides with phenylboronic acid even with 10 ppm Pd loading under air in water.
