Themizoroki Heck Reaction in Aqueous Solvents Promoted by Resin-Supported of Novel Rpf@PdNps Nanospheres: Catalytic Reduction Test

Abstract

The aim of the research was to synthesize formaldehyde phenolic resin (RPF) nanospheres using the aldol condensation method. The Novel of RPF@PdNPs Nanospheres that were prepared at that time was used as a reducing agent and stabilizing supported for the synthesis of PdNPs nanoparticles. It turns out phenol replacement led to a significant decrease in nanosphere size and an increase in the surface roughness of the nanospheres, which ultimately increases the specific surface area of the RPF nanospheres. Because of enhanced specific surface area and excellent reducing activity of RPF (Formaldehyde Phenol Resin), prepared RPF nanospheres have a very high amount of PdNPs loading. Therefore, the as-prepared of RPF@PdNPs nanospheres exhibit a highly efficient catalytic capability for the reduction of Cr(VI) toxicity.
