A Pd/CNT-SiC monolith as a robust catalyst for Suzuki coupling reactions

Abstract

A novel Pd/CNT-SiC monolith catalyst has been prepared by a simple two-step approach. The as-synthesized Pd/CNT-SiC monolith afforded high activity and stability for the Suzuki coupling reactions. In particular, it can be easily separated from reaction mixtures, showing its potential application in liquid phase reactions.
