Electroplated rhodium foil was employed as the target for cyclotron production of palladium-103. An electrodissolution apparatus was found better than other dissolution methods in terms of personnel shielding and palladium-103 yield. The ion-exchange column chromatography method was simple and effective for the purification of palladium-103 and the final stripping agent of NH4Cl + NH3(1:1) was ...

A brief summary of selected pioneering and mechanistic contributions in the field of carbon-carbon cross-coupling reactions with palladium nanoparticles (Pd-NPs) in ionic liquids (ILs) is presented. Five exemplary model systems using the Pd-NPs/ILs approach are presented: Heck, Suzuki, Stille, Sonogashira and Ullmann reactions which all have in common the use of ionic liquids as reaction media ...

background: one of the key techniques for the preparation of 125i seeds is adsorption of 125i onto silver bits coated by palladium (pd). carriers played an important role in the adsorption of 125i on palladium. ki is used as a carrier for fixing of 125i onto silver wire bits coated with palladium. materials and methods: three procedures ki, koh, nh4oh were investigated for adsorption of 125i ac...

The cross-coupling reaction between phenylboronic acid and various types of aryl halides (Suzuki reaction) was carried out using a catalytic amount of a new palladium catalyst (1-benzyl-3-(1-benzyl-1-methylpyrrolidin-1-ium-2-yl) pyridin-1-ium palladium chloride [DBNT][PdCl4]) in poly (ethylene glycol) (PEG-200) in the presence of KOH as the base. This new catalyst was synthesized and...

Palladium catalysed reactions are ubiquitous in synthetic organic chemistry both solvents and aqueous buffers. The broad reactivity of palladium catalysis has drawn interest as a means to conduct orthogonal transformations biological settings. Successful examples have been shown for protein modification, vivo drug decaging palladium-protein biohybrid catalysts selective catalysis. Biological me...

During reductive heat-treatment of bismuth borosilicate glass with palladium and selenium, palladium is extracted along with bismuth as a liquid metal phase. Selenium may then be extracted from the oxide phase in a subsequent water-leaching step. However, selenium extraction can be hindered by partial transfer of the selenium to the metal. To suppress such selenium transport, the effect of vary...

Over the past year we have been able to demonstrate that a plasma loading method produces an exciting and unexpected amount of tritium from small palladium wires. In contrast to electrochemical hydrogen or deuterium loading of palladium, this method yields a reproducible tritium generation rate when various electrical and physical conditions are met. Small diameter wires (100 250 microns) have ...

This report describes the preparation and characterization of palladium nanoshells protected with alkanethiol self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) and their application as efficient catalysts. Monodispersed silica core particles (y100 nm in diameter) were prepared and coated with a thin layer of palladium (y20 nm in thickness). Subsequently, the palladium nanoshells were treated with two separate a...

Nanoparticles of palladium-doped cerium oxide (Pd–CeO2) have been prepared by aqueous co-precipitation resulting in a single phase cubic structure after calcination according to X-ray diffraction (XRD). Inhomogeneous strain, calculated using the Williamson–Hall method, was found to increase with palladium content, and the lattice contracts slightly, relative to nano-cerium oxide, as palladium c...

Low palladium content in the hybrid bimetallic copper-palladium zeolite catalysts is beneficial for dimethyl ether production from CO 2 .
