Solid sheet of anodic aluminium oxide supported palladium catalyst for Suzuki coupling reactions

Pd(II) Schiff base complex supported on anodic aluminium oxide sheet (with Al substrate) showed excellent catalytic activity for Suzuki cross-coupling reactions. The catalyst can be separated and recovered easily just by taking it out of the reaction solutions. Easy separation and reusability make the catalysts be a promising candidate in heterogeneous catalysis.82
