Magnetically retractable tea extract stabilized palladium nanoparticles for denitrogenative cross-coupling of aryl bromides with arylhydrazines under green conditions: An alternate route for the biaryls synthesis

Novel palladium based magnetic nanocatalyst was synthesized by the co-precipitation method and coated with silica and tea extract as stabilizing agent. Palladation onto the prepared nanocomposite was done to get ION-SiO₂/TE-Pd(0) catalyst. Our study is one of the limited number of studies reported for the catalytic denitrogenative coupling of arylbromide and arylhydrazine. This led to the construction of important substituted biaryls bearing various substituents with 82–92% yields. The synthesized nanocatalyst was characterized using structural and morphological characterization techniques. It was also observed that only 2 mol% of ION-SiO₂/TE-Pd(0) catalyst was sufficient for the catalysis and reusable upto six cycles.
