Facile synthesis of palladium nanoparticles with high chemical activity using cucurbit[6]uril as protecting agent

Chem Commun (Camb). 2010 Jul 28;46(28):5088-90. doi: 10.1039/c0cc00541j. Epub 2010 Jun 18.

Abstract

Using cucurbit[6]uril as protecting agent, well-defined Pd NPs were prepared via a simple one-pot method under mild conditions. The CB[6]-Pd NPs are very stable and have high chemical activities for catalyzing Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions.
