Palladium nanoparticles anchored polydopamine-coated graphene oxide/Fe3O4 nanoparticles (GO/Fe3O4@PDA/Pd) as a novel recyclable heterogeneous catalyst in the facile cyanation of haloarenes using K4[Fe(CN)6] as cyanide source

Pd(0) nanoparticles stabilized over polydopamine (PDA) capped magnetic GO/Fe3O4 nanocomposites (GO/Fe3O4@PDA/Pd) have been synthesized in variable Pd load following a post grafting approach. Pd has been reduced in situ by the functionalized PDA avoiding the use of external harsh reductant. The structural properties of the synthesized materials were studied by different analytical techniques like Field Emission Scanning electron microscopy...
