Abstract
PdClR2R(Pan) complex was served as precursor to prepare uniform and stable Palladium nanoparticles using oleic acid as solvent and reducing agent under time-depended microwave radiation (from 0-10 min). Reduction of PdXR2R(Pan) by MW to Pd nanoparticles was monitored by UV-visible spectroscopy at four different maxima wavelengths .
The new Pd-nanoparticle material were characterized by several physical methods, such as UV–vis spectroscopy, IR, NMR, SEM, TEM, XRD analysis and PSA which confirmed the formation of nano-palladium material. Both the pure Palladium complex and Palladium NPS revealed high catalytic activity when subjected to Heck C-C cross coupling reaction under basic mild conditions [1-4].
