Abstract

Abstract Palladium nanoparticles supported on nanofibrillated mesoporous carbon (Pd@IFMC) were found to be highly active in heterogeneous catalysis for the Ullmann homocoupling of a broad range of aryl chlorides, bromides and iodides in aqueous medium without the need to any chemical co‐reducing agents. The catalysts could be recovered and reused several times without significant loss of activity.
