Abstract Palladium nanoparticles immobilized on an amino‐functionalized syndiotactic polystyrene ( s PS‐N) served as a novel recyclable catalyst for the dimethylation and cross methyl alkylation of a wide range of ketones with methanol as the methylation agent. This heterogeneous catalyst (Pd@ s PS‐N) was highly robust and showed excellent thermal stability and chemical resistance. It not only showed remarkably high activity, but it could also be easily recovered by filtration without loss of activity.
