What is it about?

New magnetically recoverable catalysts have been synthesized by deposition of 1 % palladium (Pd)-metal on the polymer poly(1-oxo-trimethylene), containing 15 % of magnetite. The magnetite allows the complete recovery of the catalyst with the simple application of an external magnetic field. The activity of such a catalyst has been studied under phosphine-free conditions in the alkoxycarbonylation of iodobenzene to the corresponding benzoic acid esters.

Why is it important?

The magnetite allows the complete recovery of the catalyst with the simple application of an external magnetic field. The reaction is carried out under phosphine-free conditions.

Perspectives

New green method to carried out the alkoxycarbonylation.
