Novel supported heterogeneous palladium catalysts for carbon—carbon forming reactions. Studies in Surface Science and Catalysis, 130, pp.2333-2338.http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.11810/2494Full text can be accessed at http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0167299100808174A novel palladium catalyst has been supported on chemically modified silica and tested for activity. The catalyst has high activity towards the Heck reaction of aryl iodides with olefins in acetonitrile solvent and has been reused several times without signicant loss of activity.enJournal Article10.1016/S0167-2991(00)80817-4
