Palladium(Ⅱ) Nitrate(CAS: 10102-05-3)

Palladium(Ⅱ) nitrate is an inorganic compound with the formula Pd(NO3)2. It is a water-soluble salt that is commonly used in various analytical and synthetic chemistry applications. It is a pale yellow crystalline solid with a melting point of 230°C.

Palladium(Ⅱ) nitrate is widely used in catalysis, particularly in the Heck reaction and other organic synthesis processes. It is also utilized in thin film technology, as a component in electrodes, and in analytical chemistry for the determination of palladium and other metals.

Palladium(Ⅱ) nitrate is generally considered safe for use in the laboratory, but precautions should be taken due to its oxidizing properties and solubility. Users should avoid inhaling dust or aerosols, and wear appropriate personal protective equipment such as gloves and goggles. It is non-toxic by ingestion but can cause skin irritation.

Palladium(Ⅱ) nitrate should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources. It should be kept in a tightly sealed container to prevent moisture absorption and decomposition. The storage temperature should be below 30°C to maintain stability and avoid potential hazards.
