Phosphane-Free Palladium-Catalyzed Coupling Reactions: The Decisive Role of Pd Nanoparticles

Abstract
Nanosized palladium colloids, generated in situ by reduction of PdII to Pd0 [Eq. (a)], are involved in the catalysis of phosphane‐free Heck and Suzuki reactions with simple palladium salts such as PdCl2 or Pd(OAc)2, as demonstrated by transmission electron microscopic investigations.
