Abstract
In this work, L‐lysine‐Pd Complex, immobilized onto the surface of Fe 3 O 4 MNPs, was successfully prepared via simple and inexpensive procedure. The prepared nanocatalyst was considered as a robust and clean nano‐reactor catalyst for the Suzuki and Heck C‐C Cross‐Coupling reactions in water as the green condition. This eco‐friendly heterogeneous catalyst was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT‐IR), X‐Ray Diffractometer (XRD), energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy (EDS), inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP), X‐ray mapping, BET, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) techniques. The use of a green medium, easy separation and workup, excellent reusability of the nanocatalyst and short reaction time are some outstanding advantages of this method.
