Efficient synergistic photocatalysis of supported Ir/Pd dual metal catalysts based on flexible polymeric brushes†
Abstract
Dual metal complexes, Pd(PPh3)4 and Ir(ppy)2(dtbbpy)PF6, are simultaneously anchored onto SiO2-grafted poly(4-vinyl benzyl chloride) (PVBC) brushes via Friedel–Crafts alkylation in one pot, affording supported dual Pd/Ir complexes which gave good yields in photocatalytic α-allylation.
