Application

Catalyst for:
  • Stille reaction
  • Hydrogenation reactions
  • Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling and Heck-Mizoroki reactions
  • Deoxygenation
  • Oxidation reactions
  • Coupling reactions
Palladium on carbon (Pd/C) (10 wt. % loading, matrix activated carbon support) can be used as a catalyst in the well known reactions like hydrogenation of alkenes, alkynes, ketones, nitriles, imines, azides, nitro groups, benzenoid and heterocyclic aromatics; hydrogenolysis of cyclopropanes, benzyl derivatives, epoxides, hydrazines, and halides; dehydrogenate aromatics and deformylate aldehydes.
It can also be used as:

  • A catalyst for hydrodechlorination of dichlorodifluoromethane (CCl2F2), which is a known greenhouse gas,
  • A catalyst for Heck reactions of aryl halides in ionic liquids
  • An anode catalyst for the fabrication of direct formic acid fuel cells (DFAFC)
  • A cost-effective electrocatalyst for the oxidation of methanol
  • In the catalytic hydrogenation of chemical hydrides for the production of hydrogen
  • A catalyst in Suzuki-Mayaura reaction
Product can be used with our benchtop hydrogen generator, H-Genie Lite (Z744083)
