The MCM-41-supported sulfur palladium(0) complex has been synthesized from 3-(2-cyanoethylsulfanyl)propyltriethoxysilane via immobilization on MCM-41, followed by reacting with palladium chloride, and then the reduction with hydrazine hydrate. The complex has been characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and it is a highly active catalyst for the heterogeneous Suzuki reaction affording a variety of biaryls in high to excellent isolated yields. Our system not only solves the basic problems of catalyst separation and recovery but also avoids the use of phosphine ligands.
