Suzuki–Miyaura Cross-Coupling in Aqueous Medium Using Recyclable Palladium/Amide-Silica Catalyst

Highly Efficient Method for Suzuki Reactions in Aqueous Media

Herein, we report the crystal structure and characterization of mono-6-(l-aminopropanol)-deoxy-β-cyclodextrin (L _n @β-CD). A highly efficient, in situ generated catalyst, PdCl₂(L _n @β-CD), was synthesized for palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions under mild reaction conditions, and the use of this catalyst in Suzuki cross-couplings was investigated. Low palladium loadings of 0.01 mol % PdCl₂(L _n @β-CD) (Pd accounted for approximately 8.4% of the catalyst by mass) were found to be highly efficient for Suzuki cross-couplings in water and afforded the corresponding biaryl compounds in excellent yields. The catalyst can be recycled and reused.

An immobilized symmetrical bis-(NHC) palladium complex as a highly efficient and recyclable Suzuki–Miyaura catalyst in aerobic aqueous media

A novel palladium-silica complex was prepared and characterized. This complex is a highly efficient and easily recyclable catalyst for Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling reaction under mild aqueous conditions, and can be reused efficiently up to 6 consecutive runs.
