Catalytic activity of SWNTs/Pd catalyst in Suzuki reaction

摘要

Pd catalyst is very active in Suzuki reaction. As a heterogeneous catalyst, SWNTs/Pd shows highly catalytic ability with Suzuki reaction. We will demonstrate the effect of catalyst’s amount, the reaction time and temperature on Suzuki reaction in this work. In comparison, a control experiment used commercial Pd/C as catalyst in Suzuki reaction has been done. An optimum reaction condition of about reacting 60 min at 50℃ with 5% (mass%) catalyst is confirmed finally, and a better catalytic ability of SWNTs/Pd than commercial Pd/C is also observed.
