摘要
Several water-soluble cyclopalladated complexes with five-or six-membered rings have been prepared as air-stable solids from Schiff base ligands bearing an N-phenyl sulfonate groups. Cyclopalladated complexes with six-membered rings show high catalytic efficiency for the Suzuki reactions of aryl bromides with phenylboronic acid in aqueous solvents under mild conditions. Palladium complex 1 can be used for five reaction cycles in high conversions for the Suzuki reactions in neat water without additives. The catalytic process for the Suzuki couplings is proved by TEM analysis to proceed on Pd(0) nanoparticles. Surfactant-protected palladium nanoparticles present lower activities and poorer recyclability for the coupling reactions than those generated in situ without additives.
