Fabrication of Palladium Nanoparticles/Graphene/SBA-15 Nanocomposites for the Catalysis of Suzuki Coupling Reaction

In this work, palladium nanoparticles/graphene/SBA-15 (Pd/G/SBA-15) nanocomposites were fabricated using a facile method and characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM, and FT-IR, respectively. The as-prepared Pd/G/SBA-15 exhibited high catalytic activity for the Suzuki coupling reaction. The catalyst can be easily recycled and reused at least four times without a remarkable loss of its catalytic activity.
