AbstractA highly efficient, air‐ and moisture‐stable and easily recoverable magnetic nanoparticle‐supported palladium catalyst has been developed for the Suzuki, Sonogashira and Heck reactions. A wide range of substrates was coupled successfully under aerobic conditions. In particular, the performance of the magnetic separation of the catalyst was very efficient, and it is possible to recover and reuse it at least eight times without significant loss of its catalytic activity.
