palladium catalysis
Cross-coupling reaction enabler
Palladium catalysis is a chemical process using the metal palladium to speed reactions without being consumed.
It's fundamental to organic chemistry, enabling carbon-carbon bond formation that would otherwise be difficult or impossible.
The technique revolutionized pharmaceutical and materials synthesis, earning its developers the 2010 Nobel Prize in Chemistry.
