Polyoxometalate-supported Pd nanoparticles as efficient catalysts for the direct synthesis of hydrogen peroxide in the absence of acid or halide promoters

Chem Commun (Camb). 2009 Sep 14:(34):5174-6. doi: 10.1039/b910317a. Epub 2009 Jul 21.

Abstract

A Keggin-type polyoxometalate (Cs(1.5)H(1.5)PW(12)O(40))-supported Pd catalyst is efficient for the direct synthesis of H(2)O(2) from H(2) and O(2) in the absence of any acid or halide additives under atmospheric pressure.
