Supported Pd nanoparticles on Mn-based metal–organic coordination polymer: Efficient and recyclable heterogeneous catalyst for Mizoroki–Heck cross coupling reaction of terminal alkenes

• Pd nanoparticles (Pd-NPs) were supported on Mn-carboxylate coordination polymer.
• These Pd-NPs displayed high catalytic activity for CC coupling reactions.
• The Pd-NPs were employed for aliphatic and aromatic terminal alkenes.
• The heterogeneous catalyst was reused four times without significant loss of activity.

Supported palladium nanoparticles on Mn-carboxylate coordination polymer (Pd/MnBDC) were prepared using solution impregnation method. This new catalyst was characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM, EDX, XPS, FTIR and TGA analysis. The Pd/MnBDC exhibits efficient catalytic activity for the Mizoroki–Heck coupling reaction between iodobenzene and either aromatic or aliphatic terminal alkenes and reuses up to four runs without significant loss of activities.

Supported palladium nanoparticles on Mn-carboxylate coordination polymer (Pd/MnBDC) were prepared using solution impregnation method. The Pd/MnBDC with anaverage size of 7 nm exhibit efficient catalytic activity for the Mizoroki–Heck coupling reaction between iodobenzene and either aromatic or aliphatic terminal alkenes. This heterogeneous catalyst was used for 4 cycles efficiently.Figure optionsDownload as PowerPoint slide
