  • Materials science
  • Nanotechnology

Background:

  • Cellulose is an abundant, eco-friendly bioresource.
  • Developing efficient and recyclable catalysts is crucial for sustainable chemical synthesis.
  • Palladium (Pd) nano-catalysts are vital for cross-coupling reactions but often face challenges in dispersion and stability.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To prepare a ligand-free, highly dispersed palladium nano-catalyst using cellulose as a support.
  • To investigate the catalytic performance of the prepared nano-catalyst in Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reactions.
  • To evaluate the catalyst's stability, recyclability, and applicability.

Main Methods:

  • Facile preparation of palladium nanoparticles (Pd NPs) on cellulose nanoporous microspheres.
  • Characterization of Pd NPs size, distribution, and interaction with cellulose using various techniques.
  • Testing the catalyst's activity, selectivity, and recyclability in Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reactions.

Main Results:

  • Successfully synthesized highly dispersed Pd NPs (∼2.75 nm) uniformly spread on cellulose microspheres.
  • Cellulose support with nanoporous structure and -OH groups enhanced Pd NP attachment and catalytic activity.
  • The C-Pd catalyst demonstrated excellent catalytic activity (TOF up to 2126 h⁻¹) and broad applicability.
  • The catalyst exhibited good recyclability over 6 continuous runs with minimal loss of activity.

Conclusions:

  • Cellulose-based palladium nano-catalysts offer a sustainable and efficient alternative for chemical synthesis.
  • The unique properties of cellulose as a support material significantly boost catalyst performance.
