Abstract

In situ-generated, glucose-derived palladium(0) nanoparticles were shown to be convenient and effective catalysts for aq. Mizoroki-Heck, Sonogashira and Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions. The addn. of only 4-10 mol% glucose to the reaction mixt. lead to a significant increase in yield of the desired products in comparison to processes that omitted the renewable sugar. The Mizoroki-Heck reaction was obsd. to proceed in good yield even as the reaction reached acidic pH levels. Extensive anal. of the size and morphol. of the in situ-formed palladium nanoparticles using advanced anal. techniques showed that the zero valent metal was surrounded by hydrophilic hydroxyl groups. The increased aq. phase affinity afforded by these groups allowed for facile recycling of the catalyst. [on SciFinder(R)]
