The use of nanotechnology to synthesize particles has become more common these days. Particles can be synthesized by a variety of methods using nanotechnology but due to recyclability concerns and environmental hazards, using biomolecules is safer and allows us to control size and shape of the nanoparticles in the same way that high partial pressures and temperatures do. Bifunctional peptides were used to make iron oxide Pd nanoparticles under green conditions using a diffusion method. The use of a Bifunctional peptide is significant because it combines magnetite sequence and palladium binding areas. This characteristic makes the Pd nanoparticles recyclable by magnet separation. These materials were used for various surface and carbon carbon coupling reactions where the reactivity and recyclability were explored.
