Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="main" xml:lang="en"> <title>Abstract</title> <p>Palladium nanoparticles were deposited on multiwall WS₂ nanotubes. The composite nanoparticles were characterized by a variety of techniques. The Pd nanoparticles were deposited uniformly on the surface of WS₂ nanotubes. An epitaxial relationship between the (111) plane of Pd and the (013) plane of WS₂ was mostly observed. The composite nanoparticles were found to perform efficiently as catalysts for cross‐coupling (Heck and Suzuki) reactions. The role of the nanotubes′ support in the catalytic process is briefly discussed.</p> </abstract>
