heterogeneous silica support have been synthesized using different ligands attached to the
palladium precursor. The ligands that have been used in this study are acetate,
triphenylphosphine and chloride in PdCat-I, PdCat-II and PdCat-III, respectively. The ligands
have different effect on stability of the compounds and impart different oxidation states to the
metal center. The materials have been characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, nitrogen …
