Abstract
|
In this study, a new palladium nanocatalyst was supported on L-threonine functionalized magnetic mesocellular silica foams (MMCF@Thr-Pd) and was characterized by FT-IR, XRD, BET, SEM, EDS, VSM, TGA, ICP-OES and elemental mapping techniques. The obtained MMCF@Thr-Pd performance can show excellent catalytic activity for Stille, Suzuki, and Heck coupling reactions, and the corresponding products were obtained with high yields. More importantly, the efficient and stable MMCF@Thr-Pd nanocatalyst was recovered by applying an external magnetic field and reused for at least five consecutive runs without a change in the catalytic activity.
