palladium(II) acetate → palladium(II) acetate

Participants

Reaction Steps

Granular active carbon of 16 to 32-mesh particle size weighing 10 g was placed in a solution of 760 mg of palladium acetate in 65 ml of propionic acid, and allowed to stand at room temperature for 12 hours. Thereupon, the material was filtered and dried at room temperature in a vacuum desiccator, to finally form a palladium-bearing solid catalyst, about 48% of palladium acetate having been adsorbed on the active carbon.
