Abstract
A new bisphosphine ligand, C8-BINAP, and C8-BINAP-stabilized palladium nanoparticles have been prepared; C8-BINAP was found to be an effective protecting ligand for preparing and stabilizing palladium nanoparticles with very small core size and narrow size distribution and the C8-BINAP–Pd nanoparticles behave as an efficient catalyst for carbon–carbon coupling reactions at room temperature.
