Suzuki-Miyaura cross-couplings of arenediazonium tetrafluoroborate salts with arylboronic acids catalyzed by aluminium hydroxide-supported palladium nanoparticles

Suzuki-Miyaura cross-couplings of arenediazonium salts with arylboronic acids catalyzed by highly active aluminium hydroxide-supported palladium nanoparticles catalyst have been investigated for the first time. The reactions are performed at 25 degrees C in MeOH without any base and ligand to afford biaryls in good to excellent yields under non-anhydrous and non-degassed conditions.
