supports (Choudary et al. 2002), chitosan (Hardy et al. 2004) and perovskites (Smith et<br />

al. 2003).<br />

In addition to heterogeneous <strong>catalysts</strong> abovementioned, zeolites are also very<br />

good support<strong>in</strong>g material s<strong>in</strong>ce they posses high specific surface area and well-def<strong>in</strong>ed<br />

micropores and mesopores for encapsulation of the Pd species. The Pd-loaded NaY<br />

zeolite has been found to be highly active catalyst toward C-C coupl<strong>in</strong>g <strong>reaction</strong>s; such<br />

as Heck <strong>reaction</strong> (Djakovitch and Koehler 1999, Djakovitch et al. 1999, Djakovitch and<br />

Koehler 2001), arylation of malonate (Djakovitch and Koehler 2000), am<strong>in</strong>ation<br />

<strong>reaction</strong>s (Djakovitch et al. 1999) and recently Suzuki <strong>reaction</strong>s (Artok and Bulut 2004,<br />

Bulut et al. 2003).<br />

In the previous studies first reported by Artok et. al that the Pd-loaded NaY<br />

zeolites were found to be very active <strong>catalysts</strong> <strong>in</strong> Suzuki <strong>reaction</strong>s of aryl bromides and<br />

iodides, afford<strong>in</strong>g excellent product formation at room temperature, however, at<br />

relatively high <strong>palladium</strong> concentrations (2.5mol% Pd). But, <strong>in</strong> their studies, moderate<br />

yields were obta<strong>in</strong>ed with chloroarenes even for activated ones (Artok and Bulut 2004,<br />

Bulut et al. 2003).<br />

In this study, we prepared a catalyst easily by load<strong>in</strong>g of Pd(NH3)4 2+ onto a NaY<br />

zeolite and <strong>in</strong>vestigated its activity over Suzuki <strong>reaction</strong>s of aryl bromides and aryl<br />

chlorides. The activation parameters, turnover frequency (TOF) and turnover number<br />

(TON) limits of the catalyst were <strong>in</strong>vestigated. We observed that the catalyst was highly<br />

active at very low <strong>palladium</strong> concentration and tolerable toward air and moisture.<br />
