Chemical structures of the synthesized biaryls were elucidated by GC-MS and H-1-NMR; and no by-products were observed in the spectra. Cationic palladium (II) catalysts high turnover numbers and selectivity were recorded for the reactions. Mercury test demonstrated that the reaction mechanism proceed a homogeneous route. Reusability tests of cationic biocatalysts showed that their catalytic activity were still highly efficient even after six cycles.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessBiopolymerO-Carboxymethyl Chitosan Schiff BaseSuzuki Coupling ReactionHomogeneous CatalystArticle531168769010.1080/10601325.2016.1224626Q2WOS:000385564600005N/A
