Abstract
Poly(2-aminothiophenol)-stablized gold nanoparticles with proper gold size and polymer thickness are active catalysts for Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction of aryl halides with arylboronic acids in water and air. High yields can be obtained with aryl halides or arylboronic acids bearing various substituents. The catalyst can be recycled.
