Abstract

C–C coupling reactions represent a fundamental synthetic methodology widely employed in academic and industrial settings. Herein, we present a report on developing and synthesizing a heterogeneous catalyst that is environmentally compatible and has recycling capabilities. Furthermore, the utilization of this catalyst for C–C coupling reactions was explored. A novel amide-based CON was prepared via the reaction of a novel [2,2′-bipyridine]-5,5′-diamine (BDA) and 1,3,5-tris(4-carboxyphenyl) (TCB). TCB was activated with carbonyl diimidazole (CDI) and then reacted with BDA to synthesize favorable CON (i.e., CON-KEY1). Finally, the CON synthesized was reacted with palladium chloride ions, and the palladium-containing organocatalytic complex was decorated with the abbreviated Pd/CON-KEY1. This new heterogeneous complex was fully characterized through the required techniques, including FT-IR, EDX, XRD, TEM, SEM, ICP, TGA-DTA, N2 isotherms, and elemental mapping analysis. Computer simulation results include a multi-sheet 2D framework proposed by CON-KEY1. As a result, palladium ions were found to be arranged between the layers and on the CON surface. This heterogeneous complex functioned as a catalyst precursor in both the Suzuki–Miyaura coupling reaction of aryl boronic acids with aryl halides and the Heck reaction of aryl halides with acrylate derivatives or styrene. The desired coupling products with various functional groups were successfully attained with excellent yields of up to 98%. Simple set-up, improved yields, short reaction times, non-toxic solvents, catalyst durability, and high turnover frequency are among the distinct advantages of this synthetic method. Some other outstanding features of this catalytic system include convenient separation of catalysts and products, high yields, almost complete conversion, high selectivity, and good turnover frequency (TOF). The results show that the highest product efficiency in the reaction was achieved in the shortest po
