Palladium is widely used as a metal wire electrode to synthesize Pd-based nanomaterials with good electrocatalytic activity. For example, it is used to prepare carbon-supported Pd nanoclusters and PdAu nanoparticles.
Itcan also be used as a hydrogenation catalyst in various organic reactions, suchas hydrogenation of alkenes and alkynes to their corresponding hydrocarbons.

Tetrahydrofurans and pyrrolidines are among the most important heterocycles found in bioactive compounds. Cyclization-functionalization domino reactions of alcohols or amines onto olefins constitute one of the most efficient methods to access them. In this context, oxy- and aminoalkynylation are especially
A one-pot two-step synthesis of versatile indenones has been developed. This palladium(II)-catalyzed transformation involves generation and condensation of ortho-functionalized 1,2-benzils from 2-(2-arylethynylphenyl)acetonitriles using Ph2SO as the oxidant. The resulting 3-cyanoindenones can be converted to various valuable molecules.
Palladium-catalyzed oxidative difunctionalization of enol ethers with 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds to construct trisubstituted furans in one step under mild conditions is described. The reaction is thought to proceed through a C-C bond formation along with a C-O bond closing the ring
A novel Pd/Cu catalyzed domino reaction for the synthesis of functionalized pyrrolo[1,2-b]pyridazines from readily accessible (hetero)aryl propargyl alcohols and 1-amino-2-bromopyrroles was developed. This cascade process involves a Sonogashira cross-coupling reaction, an isomerization and an intramolecular condensation.
The development of transition metal-catalysed cross-coupling reactions has greatly influenced the manner in which the synthesis of complex organic molecules is approached. A wide variety of methods are now available for the formation of C(sp(2))-C(sp(2)) bonds, and more recent work
