The development of new solid supports for palladium has received a lot of interest lately. These catalysts have been tested in a range of cross-coupling reactions, such as Suzuki–Miyaura, Mizoroki-Heck, and Sonogashira cross-coupling reactions, with good outcomes. Attaching the catalyst to a solid support simplifies the operations required in order to isolate and recycle the catalyst after a re...

Linear polystyrene-stabilized PdO nanoparticles (PS-PdONPs) were prepared by thermal decomposition of Pd(OAc)(2) in the presence of polystyrene. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) indicated the production of PdO nanoparticles. The loading of palladium was determined by inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES). PS-PdONPs exhibited high cat...

A new binuclear paddle-wheel palladium(II) complex of [Pd2(μ-mtzt)4]dmgH2 (1) has been prepared by the treatment of PdCl2 in acetonitrile with mixture of 1-methyl-1H-1,2,3,4-tetrazole-5-thiol (Hmtzt) and dimethylglyoxime (dmgH2) in methanol. Resulted complex was characterized by elemental analysis (CHNS), IR, UV–Vis absorption, 1H NMR spectroscopy and its structure was determined with single-cr...

are now essential in organic chemistry and have been widely applied to medicinal chemistry, process chemistry, etc. We developed a novel organometallic catalysis and their application to drug discovery and found two new catalysts, ruthenium hydride with a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic carbene (A) and an organopalladium catalyst supported on a sulfur-terminated semi-conductor, gallium arsenid...

New PdBr(2)-bis(N-heterocyclic carbene) complexes derived from 4,7-dibutoxybenzimidazole and 5,6-dibutoxybenzimidazole have been synthesized and structurally and spectroscopically characterized. The complexes show much greater solubility compared to the parent complex derived from benzimidazole, and interesting structural characteristics dependent on the position of the butoxy substituents. The...
