•Well-dispersed palladium nanoparticles supported on MWCNTs were synthesized.•Nano-Pd0/MWCNT is a highly efficient catalyst for aminocarboranylation reactions.•Nano-Pd0/MWCNT is recyclable with sustained catalytic activity.•New carboranyl amides, 1-R-2-[CH2NHC(=O)Ar]-1,2-C2B10H10, were synthesized.
Palladium (0) nanoparticles with small size and narrow size distribution were synthesized conveniently and supported on CNTs. The supported nano-Pd0 was found to be a highly efficient and recyclable catalyst for the aminocarboranylation reaction of aryl halide. Thus, a series of carboranyl amides, 1-R-2-[CH2NHC(=O)Ar]-1,2-C2B10H10 (R = H, Me; Ar = C6H5, 4-Me-C6H5, 4-MeO-C6H5 and 2-C5NH4), were synthesized and fully characterized. The catalyst was recyclable at least three times with sustained activity.
Graphical abstractWell-dispersed, MWCNTs-supported palladium nanoparticles with small size and narrow size distribution were synthesized. The nanocomposite was found to be a highly efficient and recyclable catalyst for the aminocarboranylation reaction of aryl halide to form carboranyl amides. The catalyst was recyclable at least three times with sustained activity. Figure optionsDownload full-size imageDownload as PowerPoint slide
