Palladium nanoparticles–polypyrrole composite as an efficient catalyst for cyanation of aryl halides

Abstract New palladium-polypyrrole (Pd/PPy) nanocomposites have been studied in cyanation of aryl halides with K 4 Fe(CN) 6 and showed high catalytic efficiency. Aryl iodides, bromides, and chlorides are active. The reaction can be performed both in organic solvents and in water; in the latter case, the catalyst was immobilized on graphite support. The cyanation of inactivated aryl chlorides is of special importance as only a few publications dealing with efficient cyanation of aryl chlorides are available, in which expensive and poisonous phosphine ligands and non-aqueous solvents are used. The influence of the morphology of the catalyst on its efficiency in cyanation was investigated, and…

Polypyrrole–palladium nanoparticles composite as efficient catalyst for Suzuki–Miyaura coupling

International audience; Synthesis of a new hybrid material (Pd/PPy) composed of polypyrrole globules with uniformly incorporated Pd nanoparticles via direct redox reaction between pyrrole and Pd(NH3)(4)Cl-2 in water has been recently reported (V.A. Zinovyeva, M.A.Vorotyntsev, I. Bezverkhyy, D. Chaumont, J.-C. Hierso, Adv. Funct. Mater. 21 (2011) 1064-1075). In the actual study, this procedure has been extended to synthesize a series of Pd/PPy powders with variable palladium content and morphological parameters. Depending on the monomer-to-oxidant ratio in reaction mixture, average diameters of Pd and PPy particles may change in the ranges of 1.25-1.45 and 27-62 nm, respectively, the Pd conc…
