Ag nanoparticles stabilized on basalt fibers as a novel, stable, and reusable catalyst for Suzuki–Miyaura coupling reactions

Using Ag nanoparticles on basalt fibers as a thermal and chemical resistant surface is a novel method for Suzuki coupling reactions. The characterization of this catalyst was done with various analytical tools. It was used as a heterogeneous catalyst and separated from the reaction medium easily. Also, it is economically advantageous, and we use it several times without reducing its catalytic activity.
