The chemical identification of the catalyst was performed using TG/DTG, FTIR, UV-Vis ICP-OES, SEM/EDAX, C-13 NMR, molar conductivity, XRD and magnetic moment techniques. The performance of this new Pd(II) catalyst was studied in Suzuki C-C reactions. The Pd(II) catalyst exhibited a good catalytic performance in very short time (4 min) by giving high TONs and TOFs with low amount of the catalyst (0.015 mol%). The catalyst also had reusability and did not lose its activity until six runs.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessSuzuki C-C ReactionsChitosanSchiff BaseReusabilityArticle112211111610.1016/j.molstruc.2016.05.091Q1WOS:000381167800013N/A
