P alladium N itrate S olution ( CAS : 10102-05-3 ) is an aqueous solution of palladium(II) nitrate (Pd(NO₃)₂), widely used in catalyst preparation, hydrogenation, electronic materials, and nanotechnology research . Its good solubility and reducibility make it a versatile palladium precursor in both laboratory and industrial settings. Application 1: Catalyst Precursor for Cross-Coupling Reactions Why It Matters Cross-coupling reactions (Suzuki, Heck, Stille) are essential in pharmaceuticals, fine chemicals, and materials science . palladium nitrate solution serves as a reliable source for preparing both supported and homogeneous Pd catalysts. Key Notes Supports: activated carbon, SiO₂, Al₂O₃ Pd loading: 0.5–5 wt% Reduction: H₂ or alcohol thermal reduction at 100–300 °C Advantage: Controllable Pd dispersion for high catalytic activity and selectivity Application 2: Supported Catalysts for Hydrogenation and Hydrogen Transfer Why It Matters Hydrogenation is a...
