A novel fluorous palladium catalyst for Suzuki reaction in fluorous media

Palladium(II) perfluorooctanesulfonate [Pd(OSO2Rf8)2] catalyses the highly efficient Suzuki reaction in the presence of a catalytic amount of perfluoroalkylated-pyridine as a ligand in a fluorous biphase system (FBS). The fluorous phase containing the active palladium species is easily separated and can be reused several times without a significant loss of catalytic activity.
