Oxidative imination of toluenes catalyzed by Pd-Au/silica gel under mild reaction conditions.
A Pd-Au/SiO(2) catalyst was prepared for the oxidative imination of toluenes with up to 99% yields in the absence of dehydrating agents under mild conditions. Nanoparticles with a PdO layer and PdO-Au core may be the active structure for the reaction.
