High-Power and High-Performance Catalyst for Suzuki Coupling Reaction

Abstract

Abstract: In this project, the aim was to carry out the Suzuki reaction using a new and unique catalyst with a base of Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles coated using a new ligand. In fact, this magnetic catalyst has an inhomogeneous surface to create a connection between the organic and aqueous phases so that the carbon–carbon coupling reaction is completely performed on its large surface. The structure of this catalyst uses two metals, nickel and cobalt, which are coated on a bed of amino linkers and propel the Suzuki coupling reaction at high speed on the catalyst surface. The products obtained are from ideal and optimal conditions with an efficiency of over 98%. The catalyst has a recovery power of over 96% and has enough power to perform several coupling reactions several times. Lastly, the magnetic nanocatalyst is easily separated from the reaction medium by an external field and has 100% power when performing other reactions.
