| Abstract | Nanoscale particles of palladium metallic clusters have been prepared at room temperature by sonochemical reduction of a 1:2 molar mixture of palladium acetate, Pd(O2CCH3)2 , and myristyltrimethylammonium bromide, CH3(CH2)12N(CH3)3Br (NR4X), in tetrahydrofuran (THF) or methanol. Apart from its stabilizing effect, NR4X acts as a reducing agent, probably due to the decomposition that occurs at the liquid-phase region immediately surrounding the collapsing cavity, and provides reducing radicals. Addition of 0.2 m ethanol–methanol in the THF process enhances the sonochemical reduction of PdII because of its highly volatile nature producing various reducing radicals inside the collapsing bubble. Analyses by UV–VIS spectroscopy indicated the initial formation of a PdII–NR4X complex, which, in turn, reduced to Pd0 . Elemental analysis of the resulting solid (sonication residue) shows that the THF process yields NR4X stabilized-palladium clusters, whereas the methanol process shows the formation of pure Pd agglomerates. X-Ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) with selected area electron diffraction (SAED) techniques were carried out to ascertain the nature, size and morphology of the Pd clusters. TEM of NR4X stabilized-Pd shows the presence of spherical particles of 10–20 nm in size. Selected area electron diffraction (SAED), along with TEM, reveals that the pure Pd consists of dense agglomerates, whereas NR4X stabilized-Pd exists as thin crystallites. These Pd nanoclusters are catalytically active towards carbon–carbon coupling, or Heck reaction, in the absence of phosphine ligands, to a moderate extent of 30% conversion. Hydrogenation of cyclohexene to cyclohexane has also been studied using sonochemically generated Pd materials. The catalytic ability of these Pd materials was compared with the commercial Pd on carbon material. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
