Abstract:
Easy to make and highly efficient catalyst system comprising of Pd-nanoparticles supported on graphitic carbon nitride reported for Suzuki-Miyaura cross coupling reactions in water medium under aerobic conditions using microwave irradiation. Catalyst showed high TOFs (∼ 12,000 h−1) within very short durations (∼ 5 min). High chemoselectivity to biaryls for a wide variety of substrates and good catalyst stability observed over at least six recycle runs.
