title: Graphene oxide grafted with Pd17Se15 nano-particles generated from a single source precursor as a recyclable and efficient catalyst for C-O coupling in O-arylation at room temperature.
abstract: The Pd17Se15 nanoparticles, synthesized for the first time from a single source precursor [Pd(L)Cl2] {L = 1,3-bis(phenylselenyl)propan-2-ol} and grafted onto graphene oxide, show high catalytic activity in C-O coupling between aryl/heteroaryl chlorides/bromides and phenol at room temperature (Pd loading 1 mol%; yield up to 94%).
