A. Datta et al., CHARACTERIZATION AND CATALYTIC ACTIVITY OF PALLADIUM DISPERSED ON KRATSCHMER-HUFFMAN (K-H) SOOT, Chemical communications, (7), 1996, pp. 851-852
Palladium dispersed on K-H soot, both before and after extraction with
solvents, is shown to exist in a range of oxidation states and is an
active catalyst for the disproportionation of cinnamyl alcohol to cinn
amaldehyde and dihydrocinnamyl alcohol under conditions where a commer
cial Pd/C catalyst is inactive.
