In this work, a Pd(II)-C,N-cyclometalated complex was grafted to polysiloxanes via azide–alkyne cycloaddition. The obtained polymer–metal complex (Pd-PDMS) acts as a catalyst in the Suzuki–Miyaura reaction. Pd-PDMS was drop-casted onto a carbon fiber support, and the resulting membrane demonstrated catalytic activity in the cross-coupling reaction without yield loss after several catalytic cycles. The catalytic membrane allows for easy catalyst recycling and provides ultra-low palladium levels in Suzuki–Miyaura reaction products.
