Abstract

Catalytic application of immobilized palladium nanoparticles for synthesis or ureas by oxidative carbonylation of amines has been investigated. This is the first report oil oxidative carbonylation of amines to ureas using immobilized palladium nanoparticles catalyst. The palladium nanoparticles were immobilized on a NaY zeolite support through 3-aminopropyl-trimethoxysilane (APTS) as anchoring agent. The [Pd]-APTS-Y catalyst along with NaI promoter showed high conversion and selectivity to the desired urea products over several amine compounds including ail example of an aliphatic amine precursor even at 333 K. The immobilized catalyst was easily separated and recycled several times without any loss of activity. The role of different solvents, iodide promoters, iodide to Pd ratio, concentration of substrates, and temperature on the overall yield of the reaction was also investigated.
