Abstract
Palladium catalysts have been used in the hydrodechlorination of perchlorob enzene under mild conditions. PdCl2 is not very active for this reaction. H owever, when PdCl2 is supported on PVP (polyvinyl pyrrolidone), it exhibits a high activity. Pd-Co supported on PVP displays a bimetallic synergic eff ect and gives higher catalytic activity. The catalytic activity can be incr eased further by using NaBH4 to reduce the catalyst instead of H-2 prior to use. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
