Pd(II) complexes of Schiff bases and their application as catalysts in Mizoroki–Heck and Suzuki–Miyaura cross‐coupling reactions

Schiff bases of 2‐(phenylthio)aniline, (C₆H₅)SC₆H₄N?CR (R = (o‐CH₃)(C₆H₅), (o‐OCH₃)(C₆H₅) or (o‐CF₃)(C₆H₅)), and their palladium complexes (PdLCl₂) were synthesized. The compounds were characterized using ¹H NMR and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy and micro analysis. Also, electrochemical properties of the ligands and Pd(II) complexes were investigated in dimethylformamide–LiClO₄ solution with cyclic and square wave voltammetry techniques. The Pd(II) complexes showed both reversible and quasi‐reversible processes in the ?1.5 to 0.3 V potential range.

In this paper, a highly active, air‐ and moisture‐stable and easily recoverable magnetic nanoparticles tethered mesoionic carbene palladium (II) complex (MNPs‐MIC‐Pd) as nanomagnetic catalyst was successfully synthesized by a simplistic multistep synthesis under aerobic conditions using commercially available inexpensive chemicals for the first time. The synthesized MNPs‐MIC‐Pd nanomagnetic catalyst was in‐depth characterized by numerous physicochemical techniques such as FT‐IR, ICP‐AES, FESEM, EDS, TEM, p‐XRD, XPS, TGA and BET surface area analysis.

Synthesize,Characterization and Application of Phosphine‐free Polymer Supported Palladium Nanoparticles as Effective Catalyst in Suzuki‐Miyaura Cross‐coupling Reactions

Heterogeneous catalysts were developed by supporting palladium nanoparticles on modified cross‐linked polyacrylamide and successfully applied in Suzuki‐Miyaura cross‐coupling reactions. These catalysts are stable to air and moisture, and no sign of metal leaching was detected during the reactions as judged by elemental analysis of palladium by ICP‐OES technique and hot filtration test, which demonstrates the heterogeneous character of the catalysts. High yields of desired products were resulted by using these phosphine‐free catalysts at temperatures below 80 °C without aid of any additional ligands. The heat stability of the catalysts at the operating temperature was confirmed by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). These catalysts are easy to use and cost effective. They can be recovered from reaction mixture by a simple filtration and reused in more successive reactions without significant loss in activity. The catalyst activity was restored by an ultrasonication program after deactivation in 10 cycles.

The catalytic investigations revealed that Fe₃O₄@SiO₂‐Schiff base‐Cu(II) was especially efficient for the oxidation of norbornene and benzyl alcohol. The results showed that norbornene epoxide and benzoic acid were obtained with 100 and 87% selectivity, respectively. Moreover, simple magnetic recovery from the reaction mixture and reuse for several times with no significant loss in catalytic activity were other advantages of this catalyst

Anchored complexes of Ni,Pt, and Pd on Fe3O4 nanoparticles as new and eco-friendly nanocatalysts in Suzuki and Heck coupling reactions

Abstract

Three recoverable nanocatalysts were developed by immobilizing Ni, Pt, and Pd Schiff-base complexes on the magnetite nanoparticles. Successful preparation of the nanocatalysts was evidenced by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) and energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy. Nano-sized spherical structure of the nanocatalysts was indicated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) determined that the crystalline cubic spinel structure of Fe₃O₄ remained constant through the synthesis of three complexes on Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles. Magnetic properties of the nanocatalysts were analyzed by the vibration sample magnetometer (VSM). Thermostability of the nanocatalysts was studied by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Metal loading of these nanocatalysts was evidenced by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission (ICP-AES).

Investigating the catalytic activity of these nanocatalysts in Suzuki and Heck reactions implicated that in the presence of Pd nanocatalyst coupling reactions proceeded efficiently. For Pt nanocatalyst, Suzuki reaction took place in longer time with moderate to good yield. For the Heck reaction, the desired products were achieved only for aryl iodide and some aryl bromides. The Ni nanocatalyst could just catalyze the Suzuki reaction.

Relying on the magnetic characteristic, these nanocatalysts could be simply recovered and reused several cycles without significant loss in catalytic activity.
