▎ 摘　　要

We report the synthesis of Fe-NCN pincer complex as homogenous catalyst and its composite by immobilizing the complex on amino functionalized graphene oxide as a heterogeneous catalyst for Suzuki coupling reactions. Both the complex and the composite were employed in catalyzing the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction between the aryl halide and phenyl boronic acid in acetonitrile solvent media with Cs2CO3 as a base. Effect of substitution over aryl halide was also investigated. Immobilization of the pincer complex had advantageous recovery and reuse of the catalyst as compared to its homogenous analog with no significant decrease in the catalytic efficiency.
