A phosphine-rich hexameric organostannoxanne, [n-BuSn(O)COOL](6) (PDrum; L = p-PPh2-C6H4-), has been synthesized by a 6:6 reaction between [n-BuSn(O)OH](n) and p-Ph2PC6H4COOH, Sn-119{H-1} NMR of PDrum revealed a single resonance at -481.0 ppm, indicating that it possesses the characteristic drum structure that is well-known among organostannoxanes. Reduction of PdCl2 with NaBH4 in the presence of PDrum afforded a palladium nanocomposite, NP-1. HRTEM of NP-1 indicates that the average nanoparticle size is about 3 nm. The latter has been shown to be very effective in mediating Suzuki-coupling reactions involving a number of different substrates. NP-1 can be recycled, and HRTEM analysis of the used catalyst reveals some agglomeration. Treatment of NP-1 with n-hexane and cooling to -25 degrees C afforded another palladium nanocomposite, NP-2. The latter also is very effective in catalyzing the Suzuki-coupling reaction. H RTEM of NP-2 shows an average nanoparticle size of about 4.3 nm, which remains nearly unchanged even after catalysis. NP-2 is a composite also containing some amounts of SnO2.
