Chitosan-supported palladium(0) catalyst for microwave-prompted Suzuki cross-coupling reaction in water

A chitosan-supported palladium (Pd) (0) catalyst was prepared by simple adsorption of palladium(II) ion onto chitosan beads and a subsequent reduction process.

In addition, the catalyst was successfully reused up to five times without significant loss of catalytic activity.

We report the chemical design and development of 3-aryl-substituted 7-alkoxy-4-methylcoumarins with enhanced fluorogenic properties. The 3-aryl substituents are installed via an optimized Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling (SMC) reaction between a 7-alkoxy-3-bromo-4-methylcoumarin and aryl boronic MIDA esters using Pd(OAc)₂/XPhos in a catalytic system with K₂CO₃ in aqueous THF.
