RT Journal Article T1 Hollow nanoreactors for Pd-catalyzed Suzuki–Miyaura coupling and O-propargyl cleavage reactions in bio-relevant aqueous media A1 Destito, Paolo A1 Sousa Castillo, Ana A1 Rodríguez Couceiro, José A1 López García, Fernando A1 Correa Duarte, Miguel Ángel A1 Mascareñas Cid, José Luis AB We describe the fabrication of hollow microspheres consisting of mesoporous silica nanoshells decorated with an inner layer of palladium nanoparticles and their use as Pd-nanoreactors in aqueous media. These palladium-equipped capsules can be used to promote the uncaging of propargyl-protected phenols, as well as Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling, in water and at physiologically compatible temperatures. Importantly, the depropargylation reaction can be accomplished in a bioorthogonal manner in the presence of relatively high concentrations of biomolecular components and even in the presence of mammalian cells PB Royal Society of Chemistry SN 2041-6539 YR 2019 FD 2019 LK http://hdl.handle.net/10347/18462 UL http://hdl.handle.net/10347/18462 LA eng NO Destito, P., Sousa-Castillo, A., Couceiro, J., López, F., Correa-Duarte, M., & Mascareñas, J.
