Synthesis and characterization of Pd based on [2,2′-bipyridin]-4-amine functionalized nano cellulose as a novel and recyclable nano catalyst for Suzuki reaction

In this work, it was designed and prepared an efficient nanocatalyst Pd based on [2,2'- bipyridin]-4-amine functionalized nano cellulose (Pd@BPA@CNC) and then characterized by FT-IR, XRD, ICP-AES, EDX, SEM, TEM and TGA techniques. The catalytic activity of the nanocatalyst was investigated through one-pot synthesis of biaryl derivatives from the reaction of aryl halides with arylboronic acids in DMSO solvent conditions. This Simple and mild procedure displayed excellent recyclability and provided cleaner conversion in a short reaction time. All of these advantages make the protocol feasible and economical attractive for researchers.
