Description:
The immobilization of Pd on magnetite surface afforded (Nanocat-Fe-Pd) using inexpensive precursors and its catalytic role in the Buchwald-Hartwig reaction for arylation of amines and amides was investigated; C-N bond formation was achieved in moderate to excellent yields and the catalyst could be separated and recycled up to five cycles by magnetic decantation without significant loss in yield.
