The catalyst was applied for Ulmann reaction using s series of aryl halide and phenol derivatives in DMSO and preparation of biaryls via Suzuki C-C reactions between aryl halides and phenyl boronic acid. The Catalyst was characterized by FT-IR, XRD, SEM, ICP-AES and TGA techniques. The catalyst demonstrated high reaction efficiency with more than 90% reaction yield. The catalyst indicated good performance after several times recovery and reuse %K Ullmann reaction %K Suzuki reaction %K coupling reaction %K Palladium nanoparticles %K cellulose nanocrystals %K Schiff base %U http://www.echemcom.com/article_96646.html
