A nanostructured skeleton catalyst: Suzuki-coupling with a reusable and sustainable nanoporous metallic glass Pd-catalyst

Article abstract of DOI:10.1039/c1cc10710k

Nanoporous metallic glass Pd, which was fabricated by dealloying of a glassy metallic alloy Pd₃₀Ni₅₀P₂₀, exhibited a remarkable catalytic activity for the Suzuki-coupling reaction between iodoarenes and arylboronic acids under mild conditions. Moreover, the catalyst can be reused several times without a significant loss of catalytic activity.
