“…The catalytic mechanism of the Suzuki–Miyaura reaction using G1-PdNPs is also proposed, as shown in Figure . The Pd-mediated Suzuki–Miyaura reaction mechanism has been fully discussed in many reports. ,, In the oxidative addition process, Pd(0) is first oxidized to Pd(II) by bromobenzene, resulting in the σ-arylpalladium intermediate. Whereafter, the intermediate suffers from the specific transmetalation with the help of the phenylboronic acid and K 2 CO 3 , leading to the biaryl palladium intermediate.…”
