Palladium anchored to BisPyP@bilayer-SiO₂@NMP organic–inorganic hybrid as an efficient and recoverable novel nanocatalyst in suzuki and stille C–C coupling reactions

The palladium anchored to BisPyP@bilayer-SiO₂@NMP organic–inorganic hybrid was employed as an effective and recyclable organometallic catalyst in Suzuki and Stille C–C coupling reactions. The structure of this magnetic nanocatalyst was determined using various techniques such as SEM, TEM, FT-IR, EDS, ICP-OES, VSM, N₂ adsorption–desorption isotherms, XRD, and TGA. In both of the mentioned coupling paths, the yields of the products were very favorable and ranged from 90 to 98%. Also, they had significant features compared to previous reports, such as very short reaction time (5–15 and 7–20 min respectively in the Suzuki and Stille reactions), easy work-up, broad substrate scope, ease of separation of the catalyst using a magnet, suitable reproducibility of the catalyst in 6 runs, heterogeneous nature of the catalyst and not washing it during consecutive runs with confirmation of hot filtration and ICP-OES methods.
