By immobilizing a mixture of a palladium-guanidine complex and guanidine on the mesoporous cage-like material SBA-16 via a one-pot silylation, we have successfully prepared a new solid catalyst for Suzuki coupling and the aerobic oxidation of alcohols. The structure and composition of the solid catalyst were characterized with N2 sorption, XRD, TEM, FT-IR and solid state NMR. The coordination state of the palladium-guanidine ...
