Abstract A Heterogeneous catalyst developed for selective reduction of nitroarenes to the analogous anilines using formic acid as hydrogen source. This catalytic procedure offers a simplistic path to prepare aromatic amines in good to excellent yields. Especially, even anilines functionalized with other potentially reducible moieties are obtained with high selectivity. Herein, we report convenient and stable bimetallic AgPd nanocatalyst supported on metal organic framework coated with polyaniline. Hydrogenation of nitroarenes gave analogues anilines with excellent yields at 90 °C in 6 h with no use of additives. Catalyst maintained stable performance in five repeated cycles. Graphic Abstract
