Smopex-111, a commercially available metal-scavenging styrylthiol-grafted polyolefin fiber was treated with palladium acetategiving a reagent with a palladium loading of 4.4-4.7 (wt %).The Pd-Smopex-111 thus generated was found to be a highlyactive catalyst for Heck and Suzuki coupling reactions and wasfound to be reusable with negligible leaching of palladium.
